Kisumu falls to ‘China’ and ‘America’ gangs

This led to destruction of property owned by China Squad members within the bus terminus and even beyond as police moved in to arrest the perpetrators of the violence.

“China Squad members were part and parcel of American Marine, but the former pulled out and formed a club of their own. They had flashy cars and led a very expensive life,” said Jecktone Omondi a tout at the bus terminus.

Omondi further revealed that China Squad members are very few but rich unlike their rivals.

Former Bhagdad Boys ring leader Audi Ogada castigated the police for linking the two terror groups to politicians noting that this will jeopardise political campaigns in the city as the country prepares for the general election.

“We have seen the police arrest very innocent youths in relation to this war, such arbitrary arrests only spark more tension and nothing will be resolved and the terror groups will be hardened,” he said.

Ogada, now a born again Christian recounted that Bhagdad Boys was a political tool formed in 1992 to agitate for the clamour for multiparty democracy and none of the two terror groups are holding any of their ideals then.

Ogada also felt that some police officers have overstayed at Kondele and Kisumu central police stations thus colluding with criminals who engage in carjacking and other robberies.

“We need a total overhaul at these two stations to get rid of officers who have stayed at the station for close to over six years. This is the only surest way to tame crime and curtail the emergence of such groups in the city,” he noted.
