Editor,

I wish to react to a story   published in The NewTimes,yesterday,about a Rwandan truck driver, Laurent Bizimungu who was lynched by a mob in Kenya and later died on November, 30 at Nyanza Provincial Hospital in the western Kenyan town of Kisumu.

This is uncouth behavior which the government of Kenya should not tolerate. People in the wrong should always be taken to court and take responsibility of their actions. Killing someone before they are given a chance to defend themselves is totally unacceptable.

Man was created in the image of God and therefore, we are expected to treat fellow man fairly. I appeal to the Kenyan authorities to take full action against the mob justice culprits.
