Kenya Court Suspends Police Ban On Protests In Nairobi

Kenyan court has suspended move by the police to ban protests in the capital Nairobi  and surrounding areas until further notice.

The milimani Law Courts rule the ban remained suspended pending the hearing and determination of a petition filed by Kenyan non-governmental organization challenging the police directive.

The police on Wednesday issued the order citing the lead leaderless nature that has made it difficult to enforce safety adding that the protest had been infiltrated by criminal.

It came after a month of anti-government protests in which scores of people have been killed more protests had been planned for Thursday in Nairobi but failed to take off.
