A section of activists from the Inuka Kenya Ni Sisi group scaled the fence to Milimani Law Courts on Monday after being locked out of the hearing of three activists arrested after the June 25 protests.
In a video seen by Kenyans.co.ke, the activists were seen going over the sharp-edged fence while singing a rendition of the popular gospel song "amenitendea," only replacing it with "wametuzoea." In the text accompanying the video, the activists claimed that they had been denied entry into the premises to stand in solidarity with their comrades. "Inuka Kenya Ni Sisi is standing in full solidarity with our comrades who were wrongly arrested for exercising their constitutional right to peaceful protest," the statement read in part.
