The tout identified as Mumbi said that she was ordered to disrobe by male officers and spread her legs, humiliating her in the process.

''What happened to Mumbi is unacceptable. It is beyond imagination. It cannot be allowed to happen to anybody. It is inhuman. It is a violation of her rights. It is discrimination of the highest order. It is really malpractice on the part of the police. It cannot be allowed to pass,'' Gladys Wanga said.

The outspoken legislator spoke Thursday night on prime time television as she fielded questions to a journalist.

She said that stern action should be taken against the officers who were involved in Ms Mumbi's unwarranted humiliation that has attracted the anger of Kenyans online.
