Share

NAIROBI, Kenya – (Horn Life) – Two members of the Fighting Brutality and Impunity (FBI) movement will be arraigned at the Kahawa Law Courts today as police intensify investigations into suspected links between the group and terrorism-related activities.

The arrests were made in separate but coordinated operations targeting individuals believed to be connected to offences under the Prevention of Terrorism Act.

Patrick Nyambaka Osoi, one of the founding members of the movement, was arrested along Lang’ata Road during a police operation.

As reported by the DCI, Osoi is accused of having a firearm and faces several charges under anti-terror laws.

He is being held at Muthaiga Police Station and will appear in court as police seek custodial orders to continue holding him.

In another operation, Jackson Kuria Kihara, who goes by the name Cop Shakur, was apprehended in Kahawa West.

He was found wearing a red beret branded with the FBI logo, which investigators consider part of the case.

Kihara will also be arraigned at the same court today.

The two arrests are part of a broader investigation that police say is ongoing and could lead to more suspects being identified.

Detectives are focusing on the movement’s activities, symbols, and possible communication links to determine whether it is connected to proscribed organisations.
