Kenyans on social media have acted angrily to a video that surfaced online,where four police officers, including women officers manhandle a commuter.
The incident, which happened near Lang'ata police station, along Langata Road has attracted an angry reaction among Kenyans online, with many calling for the arrest of the officers.
The woman who was wearing black outfit, had reportedly asked for her balance of her bus fare (change), from the conductor of the matatu she was traveling in, after the police nabbed the vehicle alongside the conductor, following a traffic offence.
In the short clip, the officers are captured trying to bundle the woman into a waiting police van, with onlookers trying to stop them to no avail.

Andrea Nafula Ngwilly Makes no sense. I hope she is still alive.
However, others felt it did not amount to harass, faulting the lady for interfering in the officers’ work.
Hon Olewe Their is no harassment at all the law of arrest says when one fail to comply or resist arrest a reasonable force should be applied
