MP Mohammed Ali to Make TV Comeback With Major Exposé

Nyali Member of Parliament Mohammed Ali is set to make a comeback to television screens with a major investigative piece that will seek to expose the alleged police brutality during the ongoing anti-IEBC demos.

Ali took to his Twitter timeline to drop a hint on what he was working on and his post attracted a variety of comments.

"Jicho Pevu Loading...The killings must stop come what may. No more killing in Kenya," wrote the MP.

He further ignited the curiosity of his followers with,"Mic check.....Jicho Pevu Loading.....," to signify that the latest episode would be aired soon.

Police have been accused of using excessive force during anti-IEBC demonstrations leading to deaths of several Kenyans with many others sustaining injuries.

On Monday, Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch released a report that claimed police were directly implicated in 33 deaths after the announcement of the August 8 presidential results.

According to the findings, the victims were reportedly killed during police operations in Mathare, Kibera, Baba Dogo, Dandora, Korogocho, Kariobangi, and Kawangware between August 9 and 13.

The 37-page report titled Kill Those Criminals': Security Forces' Violations in Kenya's August 2017 Elections, documents excessive use of force by police and other security agents against protesters and residents.

National Police Service spokesperson George Kinoti came out to rubbish those allegations, terming them as 'sensational'.

"The National Police Service attention has been drawn to a sensational report by Amnesty International alleging that 33 people were killed in the immediate post-August poll period.

"We wish to refute the claims as totally misleading and based on falsehoods. We are studying the report and will issue a comprehensive report later," he stated.

The findings by the two human rights watchdogs reported that as many as 50 people, mainly in perceived opposition strongholds in the capital, could have lost their lives during the protests against President Uhuru Kenyatta's win.
