Supremacy Battles Erupt Between KDF and Police in Westlands
The ongoing power struggle between the military and the police in Kenya once again turned violent over the weekend in Westlands, Nairobi County. The clash occurred when a group of Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) officers attacked two undercover police officers from Spring Valley Police Station.
Details of the Incident
The two police officers, who were on a routine patrol along Kitusuru Road, spotted a suspected notorious thug riding a motorcycle. They followed the motorbike to Waiyaki Way and intercepted it at the Red Hill area. While questioning the suspect, three military officers from Kabete Barracks intervened, attempting to rescue the suspect despite the police officers identifying themselves.
Violent Confrontation
According to a police report filed at the Springs Valley Police Station, a scuffle ensued, resulting in one police officer, Mr. Momanyi, being assaulted and sustaining injuries to his right leg. He was rushed to South B Hospital for treatment. More military officers arrived at the scene and took the motorcycle rider to Kabete Barracks.

Upon the arrival of their superiors, the police officers decided to leave the scene to avoid further confrontation. The following day, the military officers brought Mr. Momanyi to the Spring Valley Police Station without the motorcycle. However, the police managed to retrieve the motorbike from Kabete Barracks.
