Video Reportedly from Uttar Pradesh Alarming Lawlessness on Display This video is being reported as from Uttar Pradesh, though Nalanda Index has not verified its authenticity. What is clearly visible, however, is a man openly brandishing a country-made pistol, without the slightest fear of the law. Such visuals raise...

Yes, indeed, this is lawlessness by any standard. Even by banana republic standards, this is still lawlessness. Your country has a constitution, it has a government, it has a police service, and it has a ruling party. I am sure you can see that some of the people there are actually wearing ruling party T-shirts. It is lawless regardless of whoever does it. It is an embarrassment to South Africa as a country, what you are doing and what you are encouraging people to do. Your country has an immigration service. If people are in your country illegally, they should be arrested and deported through lawful processes. You do not go around destroying property, tearing down markets, and attacking people. It is illegal regardless of whoever does it. It is not illegal because I have said so. It is illegal because the laws of your country make it so. This is vigilantism, pure and simple, and it is tainting the reputation of South Africa, not only across Africa but across the world. If you have got satellite television in your home, you can see that these actions are being reported everywhere. It is not good for your country. This kind of barbarism undermines the rule of law, fuels division, and damages South Africa’s standing as a constitutional democracy. It is the actions of a few that are tainting the reputation of many. The average South African is not mindless like this. They respect the law, and they respect the fact that among them, in their communities, there are people from other countries. If those people are in the country illegally, you report them and the law takes its course through proper processes of arrest and deportation. You do not descend into mob justice, lawlessness, and destruction. That is not who South Africans are, and it must not be normalised.

A police officer carries enormous power. The power to stop, search, arrest, detain, investigate and, in some cases, use force. That power must always come with responsibility. It is therefore deeply disturbing that many police officers in Kenya continue to hide their names and service numbers while carrying out their duties. This is not only wrong, it is a direct violation of the law. The National Police Service Act No. 11A of 2011 is clear. Paragraph A10 states: "A Police officer in uniform shall at all times affix a nametag or identifiable Service number in a clearly visible part of the uniform." The law does not say "sometimes." It does not say "when convenient." It says at all times. Why would an officer conceal their identity from the public they are sworn to serve? An honest officer should have no fear of being identified. A professional officer should proudly wear their name and service number. It is the rogue officer, the corrupt officer and the abusive officer who benefits from anonymity. When citizens cannot identify officers, complaints become impossible. Accountability disappears. Justice is obstructed. Public trust is destroyed. The Inspector General knows this problem exists. The National Police Service Commission knows it exists. Human rights organizations have repeatedly raised concerns about it. Yet little meaningful action has been taken. A police uniform should never become a mask behind which misconduct is hidden. The question Kenyans must ask is simple: Are we being policed by accountable public servants, or by individuals who deliberately conceal their identities while exercising state power? No police officer should be above the law. The first duty of law enforcement is to obey the law. Every officer must wear a visible name tag and service number.
