Police Respond to Nairobi Business Attack, Raid Piracy Den, and Reconcile Kisumu Groups - August 2025

The National Police Service (NPS) responded to an attack on businesses along Nairobi's Kimathi Street, clarifying it was a targeted incident from a business dispute, not widespread insecurity. In a separate action in Nairobi, police raided a residential apartment and apprehended two individuals for the alleged unlawful distribution of digital copies of the Daily Nation newspaper, charging them with copyright infringement. Meanwhile, police in Kisumu restored calm following violent weekend clashes between boda boda riders and a youth group that left one person dead. A peace meeting was brokered, leading to an agreement to end hostilities.
