Brutality and Murder Inseparable Aspects of Capitalist Security Dockets
News:
European diplomatic missions in Nairobi have raised the concerns over the spiraling wave of abductions, arbitrary arrests and enforced disappearances in Kenya and called on President Ruto to ensure the rule of law prevails. In a joint statement signed by ambassadors of Denmark, Finland, Germany, Ireland Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and British High Commissioner, the Diplomats said through investigation should be done to unmask the culprits behind the abductions and arbitrary arrests. According to National Police Service, it has recorded an appalling number of 339 murders in the last month! Something that has created an atmosphere of fear and panic amongst the citizens, especially the females, who unfortunately to be targeted.
Comment:
Whenever such horrendous actions are committed in the third world countries such as Kenya, the lies of Western powers are unmasked. The European powers pretend to raise their concerns over brutalities, however in Gaza, they are standing firm with murderous Jewish state which is committing a massacre in a broad light! These leaders are the ones who patronize and give permission their puppets in Muslim countries in support of Jewish genocidal entity which her brutalities against the people of Gaza are unexplainable!
The horrendous and brutal actions undertaken by state security apparatus is indeed Kenya’s recurring phenomena. Kenya’s police force has been under spot over committing gross violence but knows for sure no stiff action is undertaken against its brutalities. It is worth noting the violent behavior of the security personnel was dodged into successive post-independence regimes who used the police units to advance their interests. Astonishingly, all this is happening, even after an impassioned pledge made by the then Deputy President, Dr. William Samoe Ruto to passionately address human right concerns over enforced disappearances and security crackdowns during the launch of his KK campaigns, on 30/6/22. Ironically, the old ordeal has its stake in his administration!
Kenya, just like any other democratic state in the world, the issue of human dignity and justice is a major problem, which seemed to be endemic.Police brutality, is however not only experienced in Kenya, rather it is common across Africa and the world at large. In the Western Capitalist world, police brutality and racial profiling have been common occurrences for decades, and are an inseparable aspect of life.
The insecurity is one of many pressing problem facing the citizen living under Secular Governments. Notably, police brutality is one of the powerful and primary tools of Capitalist regimes for maintaining their rule. It is only under Khilafah (Caliphate) once established upon the methodology of the Prophethood, where the police and entire department of Internal Security will be responsible for everything related to security, and prevents anything that threatens the internal security. The blood and property of the people will be protected and preserved. This is because the Khilafah will take security issues as one of the basic needs of the public hence taking full responsibility at all costs.
