He will be arraigned tomorrow.
Kenyans have congratulated the DCI for arresting the pedophile and asked that he should serve his sentence in a Kenyan prison and not deported like the way the government has done with recent incidences of crime offenders.
Don’t deport the guy. Let him serve at Kamiti and this should last the rest of his life. But surely, you can buy these things (for any price)

Well done! Now prosecute him in Kenya and let him serve sentence for committing the crime in Kenya.

Hallo @NOS, @politie let u even op? Wellicht kunnen we dit stuk verdriet laten wegrotten in een Keniaanse cel?
Let’s hope the Kenyan authorities will let this piece of utter scum rot in jail forever!

A few Kenyans have however asked the DCI to go for corrupt officials at the Immigration Department who allow criminals into the country through the back door.
Yes. Now with the same efficacy, can you arrest the cartels who continue defiling the ordinary citizens through corruption and other means day in day out.??

And the blame goes to @ImmigrationDept for giving visas and passports to anyone who can bribe them. @DCI_Kenya you need to do some arrests at this department.
