This is a Terror Gang, Kisii DC

On June 26, the Kisii DC Mr Abdullahi Leloon denied that a militia group going by the name Kisungusungu exists in Bonchari. The DC says that the group is only a vigilante organization and that the government knows nothing about the so-called Kisungusungu militia. In any case, he said, the government had no intention of disbanding vigilante groups.

But residents of Suneka division say that actually Kisungusungu has been causing a lot of havoc in the area for the last one year. It has become an anti-people outfit. The residents claim that the group has been executing people suspected to be criminals and burnt houses and destroyed property. The residents also claim that some unscrupulous business people have now started using the group to settle personal scores. There are also allegations that the group has murdered some people who are yet to be buried.

The residents feel that while the idea of forming a vigilante group may have been noble, Kisungusungu has metarmophosed into a terror gang.

And it is high time the DC faced the facts and listened to the complaints of the residents; and one of the biggest complaint is that Kisungusungu is breaking the law with impunity. Mr DC?
