Kenyan Public Prosecutor Orders Probe Into Attack On Journalists

After a group of local journalists were assaulted during a meeting called by the National Super Alliance in Nairobi, the Director of Public Prosecutions has asked the Inspector-General of Police to investigate the incident.

Journalists react after they were teargassed by anti-riot police who did not want to be filmed during a demonstration in Kisumu on October 13, 2017 (file photo).

The media staged a walkout after the melee.
