While drawing this graffiti, our comrade Gera was arbitrarily arrested and illegally detained at Kayole Police Station for three days. The person arresting him was not even a police officer, but an informer notoriously known as Benteke. They falsely accused him with possession of marijuana and threatened to shave his dreadlocks and profile him on the Kayole Crime Free Facebook Page, where killer cops put pictures of their victims and targets. When they found him with the picture of the drawing, they mocked him saying, ‘You say police everywhere, justice nowhere, we will show you that we can bring justice’. They then put him in a probox, and drove to the station and demanded Ksh. 10,000 before he is released. Eventually he was released without us having to pay a ransom.
This picture of George Floyd is also part of the graffiti that we drew next to the mural of the ‘Police Everywhere, Justice Nowhere
