FIGHTING PAEDOPHILES

Meanwhile, on Monday the Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) George Kinoti opened a cyber centre at the Kenya Police’s anti-human trafficking protection unit that will help fight paedophiles, child traffickers and abusers.

Speaking during the launch, Mr Kinoti warned paedophiles who take advantage of vulnerable children and abuse them that their days are numbered.

“This cyber unit will enable us to arrest child abusers, and they will not see it coming. It will monitor any crime committed against children, report and act on it immediately,” said Mr Kinoti.

According to Kinoti, international paedophiles are moving to remote areas pretending to be involved in charity work while their real mission is to prey on and commit unspeakable acts to innocent children.
