Mombasa: Man accuses police of sodomizing him

A 25-year-old man in Mombasa is accusing county officers of sodomy.

The victim, a blogger, alleges that a group of about 20 county officers abducted him at his home in Bamburi and assaulted and sodomised him at Miritini area before dumping him near the Mwakirunge dumpsite.

The incident, the victim says, happened on Thursday at around 8am. He added that his attackers broke into his house and demanded that he accompany them to an unknown place to apologize for criticizing the Mombasa County Government.

"I heard some commotion outside and when I went to investigate, I found more than ten guys," an eyewitness told Citizen TV.

"They claimed they would return me home later," the victim added.

But that was never to be, as the victim was allegedly taken to a hotel and bundled into a private car. His hands and legs were allegedly bound.

The victim was then wrapped in a sack and taken to Miritini area where he claims he was assaulted and sodomised by two unknown people. Before this, he claims to have been interrogated on why he was 'attacking' the Mombasa County government.

"Two guys who were not part of the group that picked me up, undressed me and took turns on me," said the victim.

The victim added that he was later taken to Mwakirunge wrapped in a sack and was rescued by a good samaritan who assisted him after hours of questioning.

The matter has been reported at Bamburi police station. So far, no arrests have been made over the alleged incident.
