[TUKO] Kenyans have questioned the quality of the newly acquired armoured police vehicles after one of them was extensively destroyed leaving seven police officers dead.
The Armoured Police Carrier hit an Improvised Explosive Device(IED) at Baure, Lamu East leading to the casualties.
The photos of the armoured vehicle which have emerged online show it was badly damaged by the explosive.
This left many wondering how such a machine could take such impact which it is meant to withstand.
Photos shows a badly ripped APC which lay upside down following the blast with some of its parts strewn on the ground.
Kenya bought at least 30 VN-4 APCs from China in January 2016 at billions of shillings with President Uhuru saying they will be used to fight terror.
