The residents of Karatina woke up on Monday to the sad reality that their loved ones had been grisly been murdered by the suspected Mungiki gang during the night operation. It has been reported in the media that the dreaded band was on a revenge mission over the killing of its members in Kirinyaga by the self-appointed vigilante posse.
Weird enough, everything happened under the very eyes of the law enforcers. It was hugely expected that Mungiki would strike back after their suspected members were killed; yet the police never moved fast enough to curtail the imminent retaliation.
Once again the police failed to execute their mandate to protect lives. Their wait-and-see attitude is squarely to blame for loss of many lives. This could have been avoided at the very onset. Life is sacrosanct and it should be treated as so.
