Vehicles torched as land dispute escalates in Meru-Tharaka Nithi border

Vehicles torched as land dispute escalates in Meru-Tharaka Nithi border
September 17, 2018 Eastern Newspaper

Tension is high in Kathangachwe area at the Meru-Tharaka Nithi border after local residents blocked private developers from surveying sections of land in the area.

Police were forced to shoot in the air to disperse the irate residents who were attacking the developers.

During the clashes, two vehicles were burnt and several people left nursing injuries.

Security teams from Igembe South and Tharaka North are expected to converge at the disputed area anytime from now to address the issue and return normalcy in the area.

The government is yet to comment on the incident.
