Police officers from Kenya are being dispatched to bring order to gang-ravaged Haiti, but in their own home country, they have been accused of brutality. | The Kenyan force tasked with leading a mission to take back Haiti’s streets from violent gangs that have overtaken much of the country’s capital will be made up of police officers who have a checkered history of their own at home, accused of killing more than 100 people this year and lobbing tear-gas into a school during anti-government demonstrations.  “Kenyan police are rogue,” said a 38-year-old taxi driver, Joseph Abanja, recounting how officers stormed into his home in western Kenya several years ago and beat his infant daughter to death.  As lawlessness in Haiti spirals out of control, Kenya has stepped forward to lead a multinational security force aimed at loosening the grip of gangs in the Caribbean nation. But while the Kenyan police have experience in international missions, they have also been accused of using excessive force to combat political protests and enforce Covid lockdowns.
