Abdulaziz Robin, Mombasa, Kenya

I was arrested in Bondeni. It was 10am and l was relaxing in a roadside kiosk drinking tea. We were six people having tea in the makeshift kiosk when county inspectorate police arrested us for idling. I was sentenced to 15 days or a KSh 1,000 (US$10) fine. I am a fisherman. I could not afford the bail.
