How does this concern us?

This is news why exactly??

No way whatsoever.

It’s not news, it’s a law review. I read a lot of law reviews. Just an old habit. But, cmon 310 million shillings for a sextape of someone banging someone’s wife while the husband is recording…Idk

All i know… Sex is expensive… And it moves moneys around…

Defamation cases have astronomical consequences.Look at our very own Biwott ,his Libel case fetched him a tidy sum too.
I wonder if captain Frisk knows this.:slight_smile:

It is also called voyerism. If you do it without consent, you’re liable for invasion of privacy

I know

Ya captain fisk si defamation. Revenge porn hiyo na according to the new cyber crime law:

  1. A person who transfers, publishes, or disseminates, including making a digital depiction available for distribution or downloading through a intimate images.
    telecommunications network or though any other means of transferring data to a computer, the intimate or obscene image of another person commits an offence and is liable, on conviction to a fine not exceeding two hundred thousand
    shillings or imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years, or to both.


Niliwahi sema hapa that kushika Fisk ni rahisi since he is clumsy na nikasema if Kenya police were serious wangekuwa wamemshika lakini some talker who claims to be a cop alishika nare sana na hadi wa Leo amecatch na mimi

Those saying that Omarosa will be fried by Drumpf need to study this paragraph:

Defamation includes written communication, known as libel, as well as spoken communication, known as slander. The legal definition also draws a clear distinction between how this concept applies when the plaintiff is a public figure and when he is a private individual. New York Times Co. v. Sullivan 376 U.S. 254, 84 S. Ct. 710, 11 L. Ed. 2d 686 established the precedent for this in 1964, when it held that a public official cannot be granted damages for defamation—as it relates to his official conduct—unless he could prove ‘actual malice’ on the part of the media organization.[4] The judgement cited the First and Fourteenth Amendments, purporting that these provide sufficient protection to prevent a public figure plaintiff from successfully suing for damages. More notably, the First Amendment protects discourse about public individuals, even when this discourse includes “vehement, caustic, unpleasantly sharp attacks on government and public officials”

Kopa heshima mahali. Pestering pinkies kila mara hapa as if hujatoka nyumba ya mama!

Compensation in defamation cases is based on how much the defamation affects one’s income. For a guy like Hulk scrambling up such a figure in lost income is easy
