Kenyan police today tear-gassed school children demonstrating
against the removal of their school's playground, which has been allegedly grabbed
by a powerful politician.
The students from Langata Road Primary School were in the
front line of people pulling down a wall erected around the playground which
has been acquired by the said powerful politician, when the policemen stormed
the place and tear-gassed them. Some fainted, while some got injured during the
protest. Kenyan primary school students are believed to be from age 6-13.
Some of their teachers were also assaulted and some adult
protesters arrested. See more photos after the cut.
