A Tanzanian National attacked brutally in Durban, South Africa for being an African foreigner.

That boy circled in green is Peter Edung. Fourteen years old. From Sosian Village, Laikipia North. From a family that has very little, except now they have even less. They have a funeral to plan. Peter went to visit his uncle, a casual worker at Oldonyo Lemora Ranch. The ranch is owned by Ivan Tomlinson, a British - Kenyan dual national. It's the kind of place where tourists pay good money to forget the world exists. Peter didn't go there as a tourist. He went there to see family. He never came back. According to police reports, the incident occurred on the night of April 21, 2026. A firearm was discharged. Peter sustained fatal injuries. The weapon, a Mark Four CZ 527 rifle, was licensed to Ivan Tomlinson. The person police have named in connection with the shooting is Lance Tomlinson; the 15-year-old son of the ranch owner. One teenager shot another teenager. One is now at Rumuruti Funeral Home. The other is... not in custody. Probably watching Netflix somewhere. The suspect is unaccounted for. The System is "Moving." Here's what we know so far, based on publicly available information. Ivan Tomlinson, the father and firearm owner, reported to the DCI offices in Laikipia West on Thursday. He came with legal representation. He recorded a statement. He was subsequently released on cash bail of KSh 100,000 for the alleged offense of allowing a minor access to a firearm, contrary to the Firearms Act. Meanwhile, the juvenile suspect; Lance Tomlinson has not yet been formally apprehended. Police have stated that efforts to trace him are ongoing. I hope we are together up to that point. A 14-year-old boy is dead. A firearm registered to a British man was involved. The father has been questioned and released on bail. The son named in connection with the shooting is still at large, and the official word is that the search is at "an advanced stage." We are not investigators. We are not the court. We simply note the sequence of events and ask: If the roles were reversed, would the pace be the same? Multiple sources have indicated that the young suspect was taken to Nanyuki Cottage Hospital for what has been described as a mental health assessment. We do not know the medical history of the individual involved. We do not know the legitimacy or necessity of such an assessment. That is for medical professionals to determine. But here is what we can observe: When a poor Kenyan teenager is named in connection with a violent crime, the path is generally direct; arrest, cells, court. There is rarely a private hospital visit in between. Whether this assessment is standard procedure or something else, the public is watching. And the question is fair: Is this healthcare, or is this strategy? This tragedy did not happen in a vacuum. It happened in Laikipia; a county where land, identity, and justice have been tangled for over a century. More than half of Laikipia's land mass is occupied by large private ranches and wildlife conservancies. Many of these are owned by families of British descent; descendants of settlers who remained after independence. Meanwhile, pastoralist communities who once moved freely across this landscape have, over generations, been squeezed into ever-smaller parcels. Peter Edung was not part of any conflict. He was a 14-year-old boy. He was from an extremely poor family. He was visiting his uncle, a casual laborer, on a ranch his ancestors may once have walked freely. And now he's dead. We do not know all the facts of that night. We do not know what led to the discharge of the weapon. We do not know the full story and we may never know it completely. But we do know the context. And context matters. Where Are the Leaders? This is the part that should disturb every resident of Laikipia County.

@swiga_swiga Its despicable to record such in the actual temple of justice,you look mature enough for this type of conduct to be inexcusable,your kind are affirming the misguided notion in laymen that the judiciary is rotten,not doing any of us a favour

@MMEWakili Is this your face or are u using someone’s face on the web

Looking at opposing counsel arguing his heart out knowing that the judge will temper justice with love 😂 ha! #legalmemes #withoutprejudice #wakiliquickone #citylawyer #viralvideo

@swiga_swiga Its mine actually,question

@ICEALION @val_Chep Your agents better not visit our offices,juu tutawafukuza,generally we are very courteous to sales people and even provide tea or a bottled water juu hiyo kazi sio rahisi.. but wa @ICEALION hao sasa ni persona-non-grata in our offices .16 months???!

@val_Chep Good Afternoon Valentine, we regret the inconvenience caused. Our team is following up on your case, kindly allow us to deal and get back to you. ^AN

Dealing with .@ICEALION has been the most frustrating insurance experience. Despite a comprehensive cover on my new CX‑5 with excess protector, I filed a claim in Jan 2025 which was approved. It’s now Apr 2026 — 16 months! The claim is still unsettled.

@Shad_khalif Rubbish same reason he was given the bedsheets to hawking is coz atalipwa peanuts,same vein as to why foreman in Utawala are hiring them at 250-300 per day.Too deep for you

So I’m buying bedsheets from this Burundian guy, right outside a wine’s and spirits. This drunk dude comes and says “Shad! Hawa watu hatuwataki Kenya wanatuibia KAZI!” I asked, he is currently walking around retailing bedsheets. You’re in a wine’s and spirits drunk. Kazi gani?

🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃🧃

@Benign_Overlord Hii ni ile Lawfirm ama??

It's not funny because it actually happens in our courts and innocent litigants suffer not because they had a bad case or incompetent counsel but because the Judicial officer has carnal knowledge of the other party's advocate.

When you report someone to the police, don’t forget the important phrase: “He said he is not afraid, even if the whole police station comes.” 😂😂

Odd date to pick but OK x.com/GlobeEyeNews/s…

Tuliona huyo patient ni mwanaume tukaamua kutoa gall bladder.

@BonnNdegwa22570 @africaken1 Ujinga gani?thats not a proper full armour plate,whoever did the procurement went for the smallest one

@africaken1 Kukua raia ni kuuliza ujinga ujinga ingine kaa hii

@JavanJnr @tonykaromo Usiangushe hii utawala yet hivo,its one of the most organised and planned estates in NRB🤣

@tonykaromo Jomba, from the comments everyone lives in Tatu city, I am the only one from Utawala

Living in Tatu City is not easy.  Children under 13 must be accompanied, walking is on specific pavements and pets should not make noise. To enter you require identification, house you are visiting, owner's confirmation....aand you must remember the entry number to exit.

@annmtave @gibsonm9 @RWJBarnabas @lawsocietykenya We've seen the video of s drunk you wrecking his house,you slipped into krnya silently because you would have ended in jail
