In Kenya, its very easy to find yourself on the wrong side of the law. Yes you could be very innocent. But this is a country where one is guilty till you prove yourself innocent. Never mind that could take years.
Today you could just be picked up in streets and before you know it, you are being charged with shooting those two people in the jewelery shop. Remember the guy who was charged with killing his wife only to see her in court during his trial.
Remember the Mbai suspects who first saw the victim of their “murder” on TV while in police cells. That is the Kenya I am talking about. And I have seen dozens of such framed up cases. The most important is to ensure that you always have an alibi to get you out of the hook should the worst happen
