Kenyan Activists Accuse Safaricom of Aiding Government in Tracking Critics
Kenyan Activists Accuse Safaricom of Aiding Government in Tracking Critics NAIROBI, Kenya – A group of Kenyan activists held a press conference today to level serious accusations against Safaricom, the country's leading mobile network operator. They claim Safaricom has been collaborating with the government to identify and track citizens who express criticism of the ruling administration. The activists presented what they say is evidence of this collaboration, citing instances where individuals who had been critical of the government were subsequently found dead or severely injured. "We are aware that Safaricom is complicit and a facilitator in the tracing and abduction of Kenyans," stated one of the speakers at the press conference. "This amounts to aiding and abetting crimes against humanity." The group called for a thorough investigation into Safaricom's alleged role in these events and demanded accountability. They also announced their intention to organize a public memorial on June 20th for the victims of this alleged government surveillance and tracking. The accusations remain unverified and Safaricom has yet to respond to these claims. This developing story will continue to be monitored for further updates.
