Residents beat up two intoxicated men for kissing at Naivasha bar.

Residents of Naivasha witnessed a peculiar incident when two men were discovered engaging in intimate activities at a local bar, sparking anger among onlookers. The situation escalated as outraged members of the public attacked and seriously injured one of the men before others intervened.

The drama unfolded on a Tuesday evening when the duo, enjoying their drinks, began engaging in intimate behavior, much to the disapproval of fellow patrons. Witness Paul Mwaura revealed that the spectators became increasingly angry as the two continued their actions.

According to Mwaura, tensions reached a breaking point when one of the men started undressing his partner, prompting the onlookers to step in. The irate crowd ejected the two men from the bar and subjected them to a severe beating.

Mwaura further noted a recent increase in LGBTQ couples in the town, often utilizing Airbnb accommodations. He mentioned that one of the suspects involved was married, leaving residents grappling with the rising incidents.

A senior police officer, requesting anonymity, stated that the matter had not been reported to the Naivasha police station. Kenya has witnessed cases where LGBTQ individuals face assault and, at times, fatal violence due to their sexual orientation.
