KFCB Official Exposes Police Airing Porn to Children

Concerning a worrisome trend, the Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) has  raised a red flag over video dens run by police officers that broadcast porn and  other types of graphic content. The KFCB North Rift Regional Manager, Bonventure Kioko, told reporters on  Wednesday that the organization has information that suggests police personnel  have been acting lawfully and putting children in danger by deliberately making  money off of the video dens.

“In the video dens, indecent content is aired in broad daylight and two of these are owned by police officers,” he said.The official claims that by permitting the airing of such information in venues they own, the officers have broken all established rules.Since children’s minds are being tainted, Kioko contended that the consequences of this tendency are grave.

Kioko issued a warning, stating that the organization is aware of the police officers’ activities and is taking steps to guarantee their capture.

“We are going to take stern actions against anyone exposing our young children to audio-visual content depicting adult experience,” he said.Additionally, he stated that the board would cooperate with Interior Cabinet Secretary Kithure Kindiki to apprehend everyone responsible.

According to the official, the tendency is widespread in the North Rift region’s Trans Nzoia and Uasin Gishu counties. The authority issued a warning to the owners of these dens instructing them to keep children and minors out of their premises and to refrain from showing offensive material during the day when kids might be playing outside.

Kenyans were cautioned by KFCB in April not to post private footage on social media without getting permission from the subjects.The board reported that it has seen a rise in the live broadcasting of explicit content throughout the nation, particularly after 10 p.m. on digital platforms.

KFCB issued a warning, stating that anyone found guilty could face a Ksh200,000 fine, two years in jail, or both.The 2010 Constitution’s Article 31(c) guarantees the right to privacy regarding information about one’s family or personal matters. This clause prevents one’s private photos from being needed or disclosed needlessly. Therefore, victims of such egregious crimes need not to suffer in quiet but rather pursue legal action against the offenders,” the board stated in a statement.
