[wanabidii] Arrested for Begging ?

Thursday, November 07, 2013
Is begging now illegal? What kind of a law is that? Next thing they will be arresting people for being poor?

I think our police force has some very twisted priorities. I bet you that even as they were arresting these beggars, they were telling real crime victims that they their vehicles "had no fuel" !!!!

Mombasa, Kenya: Mombasa County inspectorate police arrested six Tanzanian men allegedly involved in trafficking disabled people into the town from the neighbouring country.

Police said the suspects place the disabled people on the streets to beg for money, which they collect at the end of the day.

The six men were arrested alongside six physically challenged beggars, including two children aged five years, in a one-bedroom house at Mwembe Tayari in Mombasa.

According to Mombasa County deputy inspectorate officer Swaleh Mwamlevi, the move comes after several complaints were received.
