Kenya: 6 youths killed in mob justice, bodies set on fire

2006-07-19

(SomaliNet) Some six youths who were playing cards were yesterday rounded up by a mob, battered to death and set their bodies ablaze, Nation Media reported Tuesday.

"There they are! Hand me my bludgeon, Ngoro!"

According to the mob, the dead men were robbers who were behind a wave of crime in Nakuru Town. The residents armed themselves with weapons and launched a manhunt for the suspects, who were cornered while playing cards in Heshima Estate.

"Get 'em!"

However, the youths attempted to flee,

"Feet, don't fail me — aaaaiiiieeee!"

but were apprehended and beaten before being frog marched to an open field where they were doused with petrol and set on fire. The Kenyan Police arrived moments later and took away the bodies. Two of the suspects still had signs of life, but police said they died shortly after their arrival.

"Dr. Quincy!"
"What is it, Sam?"
"This one's still twitching!"
"Just ignore it. He'll stop soon."

#4 Years ago, I watched an incredible documentary, showing a police "investigation" in Ivory Coast, supposedly an advanced country by african standards.

Procedure followed the death by hijacking of a police officer, and *all* the detective work consisted of waiting for tips by informants, and BEATING SENSESSLY suspects until they "confessed". Wash, rince, repeat as necessary. All this in front of the camera, a real snuff movie, except for a prolonged beating during a whole night which left suspects with broken bones and everything, and had them confess to the crime : false lead, start all over again.

Finally, perps were caught, and one was badly injured in a car accident; he was "interrogated" on the spot, despite being all broken up already, then taken to the hopital.
Next morning, he had disappeared. Escape? Nope, he died in the meantime, and the body was put in a tool house in the hospital's garden and forgotten. Case closed.

Mind boggling.
