Drama as Hague police kick out Kenyan MPs
Igembe South MP Mithika Linturi (centre) and Kirinyaga Central lawmaker Joseph Gitari confront a Dutch policeman moments after the politicians were ordered to leave the ICC precincts Friday. BILLY MUTAHI/NATION
Dutch police Thursday dramatically ordered Kenyan MPs to keep off the entrance to the ICC building in The Hague.
The lawmakers had been joined by former Commissioner of Police Hussein Ali himself a former suspect in the crimes against humanity cases that arose from post-2007 election violence, raising questions about his presence.
The politicians, who accompanied Deputy President William Ruto in a show of solidarity, were lost for words when local police insisted that they move away from the entrance. This is where they have been lining up every morning to greet Mr Ruto.
