A Sunday service at Witima ACK Church in Othaya was abruptly disrupted when tear gas canisters were fired inside the sanctuary during a visit by former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua (inset).
The attack on a church in Othaya, where former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua was in attendance, fits an alarming pattern. The motivation is achievement of a political or material goal by well-placed people.
Police, armed with tear gas and guns, and increasingly accompanied by goons armed with crude weapons, carry out these attacks.
