Tension in Homa Bay After Detectives Arrest Kassim Abdi Sebo

Protests have erupted in Homa Bay after detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) arrested Kassim Abdi Sebo.

Sebo was apprehended on Thursday, October 8 night, at Homa Bay Bus Stage following a warrant of arrest issued by the Homa Bay Law Courts.

The suspect is accused of being behind the chaos witnessed during the Linda Mwananchi movement rally in Homa Bay in August.

The DCI detectives also arrested seven other suspects who were allegedly obstructing them during the operation.

They include Achiando Victor Odhiambo, Isaac Masika Muliro, Oyege Moses Geoffrey, Geoffrey Njore, Odhiambo Wesley Arnold, Joseph Kobila, and Alfred Nyagiro Aliwa.

Following the police operation, unrest erupted in Homa Bay town, with angry youths lighting bonfires and barricading roads.

The irate protestors demanded the immediate release of Sebo and the other suspects who were nabbed by the DCI officers.
