Activist Recounts Brutal Tanzanian Police Ordeal

Activist Boniface Mwangi details his ordeal at the hands of Tanzanian Police. A press conference held in Kenya revealed a harrowing account of arrest, abuse, and alleged human rights violations. Mwangi described being blindfolded, forced to strip naked, and held upside down before being beaten. "They put gloves on their hands before lifting me up and tying me upside down," Mwangi stated, his voice trembling with emotion. The incident underscores concerns about police conduct and human rights in Tanzania. Authorities have yet to respond to these serious allegations. The press conference also included a colleague who offered support and further details. This incident highlights the need for continued monitoring of human rights practices in the region.
