ICC MOLES ,MAINA KIAI,GLADWELL OTIENO WHINES ABOUT THEIR SAFETY TO THEIR FOREIGN MASTERS

US NGO asks UHURU/ RUTO to protect ICC moles MAINA KIAI and GLADWELL OTIENO - they may be killed

Friday January 24, 2014 - A New York -based Human Rights Watch has urged the Government of President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy, William Ruto, to “protect” activists who are helping the International Criminal Court (ICC) collect evidence in Kenya. The advocacy group, in its 2014 world report released on Wednesday, claimed that after Uhuru and Ruto “narrowly won” the March 4th elections and barely avoided a re-run, they have resorted to deploy all the resources of the State towards bribing, intimidating and even killing those they think are working with the ICC court. The watch group said the civil society in Kenya has come under increased pressure from the Government for advocating for justice for the 2007-08 post election violence. They said in September last year, Maina Kiai, the former Head of the Kenya National Commission for Human Rights (KNHCR) and a United Nations Special Rapporteur on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association and Gladwell Otieno, the director of AFRICOG – were threatened by supporters of the President for their role in the ICC cases The organization gave President Uhuru Kenyatta 21 days to offer security to Maina Kiai and Gladwell Otieno or they file a case at ICC, accusing him of threatening the lives of the two Kenyan activists. The report was edited by Prof Makau Mutua, who is a Distinguished Law Professor at Buffalo Law School in New York
