Kenya in the News – March, 2006

Hooded policemen raided a Kenyan television station network and switched the satiation’s power off and immediate cut the TV service. They also harassed staff and removed equipment. After the media station, they next went to a nearby printing news press; vandalized equipment and set ablaze thousands of newspapers and the building.
Apparently the raid occurred as the media have been critical of the current government, however the actions are unsubstantiated in the connection to any level of government organization.

This wasn't even covered in the media here. I'd think freedom of the press activists would have brought it on to the news. This blog has screenshots of the raid:
