Moment viral cop Shakur was arrested outside Parliament protesting solo [Video]
A prison warden popularly known as Cop Shakur on social media was Tuesday arrested while protesting outside the Parliament Building.
Videos shared online showed him dressed in blood-stained white dustcoat while raising a placard.
He said he was seeking justice for those killed in the recent anti-tax protests.
“We want justice, not your condolences,” read part of the placard.
The warden attached to Kamiti Medium Prison had arrived outside the Senate gate with a group of supporters amid the rains.
Parliament Road has been full of security officials since it was breached by protesters on June 25.
The protester first engaged security officials at the gate in a push-and-pull game as he tried to access the precincts and blocked motorists from getting in and out.
A few minutes later, more police officers arrived and grabbed him before dragging him to the Parliament police cells.
The team tore his coat as they struggled to drag him away saying his protest was illegal.
He briefly resisted before cooperating and they walked away.
It was after they arrived at the station that he identified himself as Jackson Kuria Kihara alias Shakur, a prison warden attached to Kamiti Medium prison.
