26 patrons, bar owners, revellers and employees of bars and restaurants in Kileleshwa, Nairobi County Kenya were on Saturday, October 1, 2022, arrested for playing loud music.
They were placed in Custody at Kibera and Central Police stations and are expected to be arraigned in court tomorrow, Monday, October 3, 2022.
This is after an operation was done by officers from the County Government of Nairobi, NEMA, Kileleshwa Member of County Assembly (MCA) Robert Alai, and officers from the Liquor Licensing Board.
“Yesternight there was an operation in the area and the bar owners, DJs, employees, and clients of five bars and restaurants were arrested and placed in custody. What we want is the rights of people to be respected.
I am not against the bars but they should follow the set regulations and laws because the noise has been too high which is not good,” Alai stated.
“The team had joint operations with the police in Kibera and Dagoretti North Sub-county.
The Clubs arrested include; Club 909, Oyster Club, Kettle House, Bar Next door, and Brew Bistro Lounge. They have been blocking people from even using the road as they park in the middle of the road and even smoke Shisha which was banned. There are remaining 17 which if they don’t follow the regulations, we will go for them too,” he added.
