Thursday, December 5, 2024 - A rogue officer from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) was captured on camera assaulting Citizen TV journalist Agnes Oloo outside DCI headquarters.
The plain-clothed DCI officer confronted the journalist and
ordered her to switch off her camera, leading to an altercation.
He was seen trying to grab the camera from her and threatening
to break it.
Agnes was reporting live when the incident happened.
Her colleague Ayub Abdikadir shared the video on his X account
and condemned the harassment of journalists by DCI officers.
“This outright harassment, intimidation, and obstruction
of Journalists by @DCI_Kenya should be condemned and denounced. This is a DCI
official attempting to confiscate the camera of my colleague Agnes Oloo,” he
tweeted.
