The world will take little, if any, notice of this. It would only be newsworthy if Christian police officers had beaten and arrested a Muslim for refusing to renounce Islam, but despite the moral equivalence and demonization of Christianity in the establishment media, that kind of thing doesn’t happen.
“Muslim Police Officers, Others Beat and Arrest Christian in Kenya,” Morning Star News, January 25, 2019:
NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – Muslim policemen on Saturday (Jan. 19) beat and arrested a Christian man on the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya in retaliation for refusing to recant Christianity, sources said.
Accompanied by two Muslims of Somali descent who had attacked him previously, the policemen arrived at the home where Hassan (surname withheld for security reasons) lives with his widowed mother, and the officers along with the two others punched, kicked, trampled and struck him with blunt objects, relatives said.
“The police arrived and carried Hassan away with blood flowing from his body,” his mother told Morning Star News, adding that one of the officers was a Muslim relative of Somali descent who has habitually joined other Somali Muslims resident in Nairobi in attacking her son. In Saturday’s attack, Hassan lost teeth and suffered leg, chest and back injuries, she said.
Initially police took him to Ngong police station, where his mother’s pleas compelled them to take him to a medical clinic for treatment. The next day they transferred him to a police jail in Nairobi’s Industrial Area. His mother visited him there on Wednesday (Jan. 23) and said he was in bad condition.
“My son’s leg is bruised, he has serious chest and back pain, he is unable to walk and some of his teeth were removed,” she said. “My family is in danger, where are we going to hide ourselves? I cannot go back to Islam. I am better dying with my family than going back to Islam.”
At this writing, Morning Star News was unable to reach a police representative about the brutal arrest or what charges Hassan might face. When his mother asked police why he was being held without charges on Thursday (Jan. 24), an officer directed her to the Muslim relative who was one of the policemen attacking Hassan. Suspecting the relative was going to demand a bribe, she said she would not talk with him.
The assailants planned the attack, which took place outside Hassan’s home in the Bulbul area of Ngong, 26 kilometers (16 miles) southwest of Nairobi, after he and other relatives declined to renounce their faith in exchange for financial help, she said. The formerly Muslim family migrated from Somalia after Hassan’s father died.

A Muslim neighbor had invited Hassan, his mother (name withheld for security reasons) and two siblings to Jamia Mosque in central Nairobi, one of Kenya’s most prominent mosques, on Dec. 3, telling them that Muslim leaders there could help them with their financial needs, relatives said.
At the mosque, they were introduced to a wealthy Arab who told them they could receive support, and later they were taken to his house on Mombasa Road, they said. Their first indication of trouble came when a non-Muslim worker there from the ethnic Luhya, a Bantu group, advised them that things may not be go well for them if they were Christians.
Hassan’s mother said they were surprised when the wealthy Arab and other Muslims told them that financial help was conditional on them renouncing Christianity.
“We were promised financial support for the school fees of the children and general upkeep of the family, but they were categorical that Muslims have no relation with ‘infidels,’” Hassan’s mother told Morning Star News. “To this, I refused to recant my faith in Christ.”
The family had initially accepted the offer of financial support, but when it became conditional on renouncing their faith and they refused, their Muslims hosts became angry, and the Christians had to flee the house, they said.
Hassan’s mother said that on Dec. 20 relatives suffered an attack in Jamu, in Somalia on the border with Kenya, where she maintains her ancestral home. Unknown assailants destroyed the roof and bashed gaping holes in the walls where one of her sons was living with his frail and ailing grandmother, she said.
Muslim relatives in Jamu on Dec. 15 had questioned her son about his absence from Friday mosque prayers, she said. The widow said she has recently received anonymous threats from Jamu threatening to do away with her family, and that she has received threatening text messages from the area since she sent him to live there two years ago.
The family has suffered at the hands of Somali Muslims in Nairobi for several years. On Feb. 7, 2016, Muslim relatives beat Hassan unconscious after discovering that the family was holding secret Christian meetings….

Christians are not even safe in Christian-majority Kenya.Two years ago 149 Christian college students got singled out for their faith and summarily executed by Al-Shabab, a Somali jihadist group! Will Ilhan Omar, the Somali islamist woman elected into the US congress address those horrific atrocities?
Rod says
Several dozen people are actually murdered in the Christian USA every day. Every day! Not beaten. Murdered. Sometimes by police.
But you’re outraged to read about one Christian man mistreated by “Muslim cops”, in another country. “Horrific atrocities”, “The march of evil” for god’s sake. Wouldn’t it make sense to pay more attention to the teachings of your own religion, as they apply to you? And reform your crazy gun laws? And discuss your own failings, appalling as they are.

I agree, tens of thousands of Americans are dying because of gun violence in the US but that is beside the point! Islamists are killing 100.000 Christians in the islamic world on every single year! 20 Christian just got killed in the Philippines this morning by Islamist jihadists! And Somalis are evil jihadists that are so hateful to Christians that they even dig out the graves of the long dead Christians and burn their bones to ashes as documented by Somali Christian minority in that country. See the latest murder of Christians by islamists below and this just happened a few hours ago today:

WHAT A STATEMENT!

Rod’s implication that Muslims only beat and do not murder Christians is *utterly false*. How can he think that anyone at Jihad Watch will swallow this tripe?
“100,000 Christians Killed Yearly for Their Faith”
https://clarionproject.org/100000-christians-being-killed-faith-yearly-16/
The largest number of these Christian victims are murdered by Muslims.
Any violence in the West is regularly discussed–but Rod does not want anyone to dare to talk about institutionalized Muslim violence against Infidels.

Very well-said, Graven! God bless you!
Rod says
How extraordinary! 100,000 Christians killed by Muslims every year. That’s 2000 a week, nearly 300 a day. Wouldn’t you think Mr Spencer would be busy (very busy indeed) reporting all these atrocities.
Instead, (wait for it), he tells us that a Christian was beaten up in Kenya! Oh My God!!! What next?
Are you people really so gullible, so simple minded, so obsessed with your lunatic bigotry, that you can’t see how far off the planet you have been led?
“christian blood” “graven image” Are you serious?

This is yet a further example of the basic weakness of of the doctrines of Islam as well another example of the violence essence of Islam.. For Islam has such a weak foundation to uphold it’s pillars the the imams can’t find any rational; valid reason base on logic based arguments to sway anyone to join “The House of Islam.
Since Islam has no rational , valid ,reason based of logical argument to sway non-Muslims to be proselytized to Islam the imams and other Muslims in power then resort to the use brute force to “sway” people to “convert” to Islam
J D S says
No one really seems to understand that the ONLY, I MEAN THE ONLY thing that has kept Islam. Going is FORCE and FEAR…force and fear what a way to keep a RELIGION going. so sad!

I can’t think of his name, but there’s a famous American political figure who was born and brought up in Kenya who shares the same sentiments.

No Muzzies Here, I guess you are being sarcastic about the crook called Obama -apologetic for the horrors of Islam and working for political Islam relentlessly.
somehistory says
The offer of money was a trick. No one…no one, ever…should trust moslims. They are taught deceit from birth. They learn trickery and deceit. They are not taught to be kind and loving. Never, ever, trust a moslim. Don’t accept any gifts or offers of help from moslims.
There is likely no immediate relief for these poor people. Prayer and endurance. Endurance and prayer and keeping their faith in God’s promises.

Kenya: Muslim cops beat and arrest Christian for refusing to renounce Christianity
…………………….
And this horror happened in a country that is not Muslim-majority. Will the Kenyan authorities do anything about these “police”?
Raja says
Graven Image, What if Islam is already a sacrosanct religion in Kenya? It is already a holy cow in the West and God knows how many nations want to tow the Leftist -Islamic agenda to destroy the delicately balanced world order?
The devil has this agenda of destroying of the world from the beginning when he did everything to thwart the coming of Jesus (first coming) through the then (old testament) chosen people of God -Jews.
Ed Wharton’s book -the plan of redemption deals in details on the subject of how Satan tried to sabotage God’s will.

Muslims makes up almost 10% of the population in Kenya, and is growing. Moreover, there are increasing Jihad terror attacks from neighboring Somalia, especially from Al Shebaab. Very disturbing.
michael casmer says
I’m afraid things are starting to look that way here in the US too. A certain congress woman questions a man on his religious affilitation while he is a candidate for a judgeship because he is a Catholic. But that same congresswoman doesn’t question the female Moslem members of the House on their religious beliefs.
fred says
Again, just another example of how blind faith in assumed ‘divinely revealed scripture’ for the past 5000 years, with all its retrograde dogma, poisons the psyche of our species. The question that should always be asked, but rarely is, by the oh-so righteous and devout clutching their Bibles, who are drenched in their own tear-soaked, sincere prayers… why are these prayers to Jesus and his Father NOT answered while being raped, severely beaten, and/or hacked to death? Maybe, just maybe, these faith-based religious heroes are as imaginary as Superman and Batman? Sorry to break the news but fictional entities do not intervene or truly communicate with us on the real plane of existence. And here’s a silly question to ponder for those that think these sky-dictators actually exist … why is it that around the world is it obvious that Islamic dark forces – for the last few centuries now – are dominating and massacring Christian communities? Is it possible in this comic book universe of religious ideology that Allah and His Holy Messenger Mohammad are more powerful and mighty then the Christian Godhead? This is the cosmic equivalent of Mike Tyson destroying Michael Spinks over and over again!!
gravenimage says
More ridiculous false moral equivalence.
And the idea that Christians are entirely passive and incapable of acting to protect themselves is quite mistaken. Just a glance at history shows that this is not true.
fred says
I understand it’s emotionally painful and causes you cognitive dissonance so you need to avoid responding to my comments regarding the obvious impotence of the God you were indoctrinated in believing HE was real and all-powerful and all-merciful, and all-just. Don’t you think it’s quite peculiar as you read Jihad Watch everyday and it contains post after post how Muslims, and Islam, and Sharia are spreading like a runaway cancer throughout the entire world, and wiping out Christian and Jewish communities, and infiltrating local and national governments, etc… and your Omnipotent Christian Deity does nothing to stop it, and we just see atrocity after atrocity occurring before our very eyes as these innocent, sincere, faithful, prayerful believers get butchered. What does that tell you? Curious how you will spin this.
gravenimage says
No spin here.
Humans have free will, to do good or evil.
Jimdandi says
Hey Rod,
Yes, there are murders that take place in the USA every day. However, very seldom are they committed by genuine Christians. We have become more of an atheistic country than Christian. Many are Christians in name only. And, your assertion that many are done by the police is flat out incorrect. Most of the time when someone dies at the hands of police, it is justifiable. The few that aren’t get national attention. And, you don’t mention the numerous police who are killed by criminals during traffic stops, etc. Your narrative is badly flawed.

WRONG! From here:

Armed Citizens Make Fewer Mistakes Than Police
Don’t think that just because the police are trained in the use of firearms that they are less likely to kill an innocent person. A University of Chicago Study revealed that in 1993 approximately 700,000 police killed 330 innocent individuals, while approximately 250,000,000 private citizens only killed 30 innocent people. Do the math. That’s a per capita rate for the police, of almost 4000 times higher than the population in general. OK, that is a little misleading. Let’s just include the 80,000,000 gun owning citizens. Now the police are down to only a 1200 times higher accidental shooting rate than the gun-owning population in general.
That still sounds high. So let’s look at it in a different light. According to a study by Newsweek magazine, only 2% of civilian shootings involve an innocent person being shot (not killed). The error rate for police is 11%. What this means is that you are more than 5 times more likely to be accidentally shot by a policeman than by an armed citizen. But, when you consider that citizens shoot and kill at least twice as many criminals as do police every year, it means that, per capita, you are more than 11 times more likely to be accidentally shot by a policeman than by an armed citizen. That is as low as I can get that number.
This is not meant to be an indictment of the police. In fact, because police often live on the edge, they naturally tend to shoot first and ask questions later. Although they are trained to repress this instinct, it does not always work, as evidenced by the number of innocent people killed by police. Also, since they are generally better marksmen, they tend to kill, rather than wound or totally miss their target.
The Kleck study shows that police shoot and kill around 600 criminals each year. Yet the University of Chicago study shows that police killed 330 innocent individuals in 1993. That means that for every two criminals killed by police, one innocent citizen is killed by police. Although I have the greatest respect for the police and how they must respond under pressure, I think that I would much rather trust an armed populace.
