Sunday, 24 January 2016-Former NTV journalist, Yassin Juma, was arrested on Saturday Night and locked up at Muthaiga police station following his recent posts on the El-Adde attack that left unspecified number of KDF soldiers dead after being ambushed by members of Somali based rag-tag, Al-Shabaab.
Juma has been sharing sensitive information on El-Adde attack and this is the reason why he was arrested.
Juma's arrest was confirmed by his close friend, Dennis Onsarigo, who tweeted saying;
Interior Cabinet Secretary, Joseph Nkaissery, had warned Kenyans against sending alarming pictures and messages on El-Adde attack but the former NTV journalist has been sharing sensitive information on his various social media platforms concerning the attack.
He even claimed that sources within KDF confirmed to him that over 103 soldiers were killed in the ambush.
Majority of Kenyans have taken to social media and condemned Yassin Juma’s arrest claiming that it infringes on the freedom of expression.
