Presidente do Supremo Tribunal, Koome, alerta sobre gangues financiadas por políticos

A presidente do Supremo Tribunal, Martha Koome, alertou sobre o aumento de gangues criminosas supostamente financiadas por políticos no Quênia.

Em uma entrevista televisiva, Koome disse que um relatório do Centro de Pesquisa Criminal mostra que existem mais de 600 gangues operando no país, e que o número pode ter chegado a quase 1.000.

Ela explicou que alguns políticos formam e financiam esses grupos para promover suas agendas políticas, e as gangues participam de comícios políticos.

Poucos dias depois, a líder do Partido de Libertação Popular, Martha Karua, pediu diálogo durante um culto religioso em Ahero para abordar o aumento de grupos de vândalos utilizados na política.
