A local musician has come out to explain how he was harassed at State House this week.

Fidel Eli Shammah, a musician with 'Le Band' through his social media accpount revealed that he was harassed by security personnel at State House road.

According to Shammah, he got a call while driving in the area and stopped at a bus station to respond to the call.

While he was speaking on his phone, an officer outside State House came towards him and reminded him that he had parked at the wrong place.

He was then accused of flaunting traffic rules and the officer threatened to hand him over to his colleagues if he did not part with a bribe.

"So he told me there was a sign just before the station stating so (not designated for public use) and at first I was ignorant and was just gonna accept that I was wrong and ask that he pardoned me as I hadn’t seen the sign.

 "He asked for my license and I obliged. He then read out my name Omusula and said wewe hujui shida uko (you do not know the trouble you have got into),"said Shammah.

Shammah further went ahead to reveal that the officers ridiculed him for him name.

The officers allegedly warned him that they could accuse him of a major offense and he would have nowhere to raise his grievances.

He then demanded to know where the supposed road sign prohibiting parking was but they could not show him.

Omusula went ahead to claim that once the security personnel saw his student identification card and realised that he was a law student, they let him go saying "kumbe unajua haki yako ndio unasumbua sana" (you are disturbing us because you know your rights).
