Several people were arrested on the morning of Monday, December 30, as they engaged in anti-abduction protests in Mombasa.
With protests kicking off in several parts of the country after an online campaign against the government, anti-riot police were on standby to quell any possible arrest from demonstrators.
In Mombasa, police seemingly had zero tolerance for any form of mass action, and were quick to dispel the protestors as soon as they gathered in the city centre.
Videos accessed by Kenyans.co.ke showed anti-riot officers briefly engaging with tens of residents, who were chanting anti-government slogans.
