The Katiba Institute has initiated contempt of court proceedings against Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja and the National Police Service (NPS) for allegedly defying High Court orders by erecting roadblocks across Nairobi.

• The Katiba Institute seeks to hold Kanja personally liable for the alleged deliberate violation of conservatory orders that prohibited police from erecting barricades without prior public notice.
• Key organizations involved include the Katiba Institute and the National Police Service (NPS).
• The roadblocks, which caused significant traffic disruptions and affected thousands of commuters, were erected on June 25, coinciding with the Gen Z anniversary protests.
