City businessman Chris Obure has lodged a formal complaint with the police, asserting that his life is in danger after a dramatic court-ordered return to the disputed Senteu Plaza in Kilimani.

Accompanied by his lawyer, Gitobu Imanyara, Obure visited Kilimani Police Station earlier today, where he accused auctioneer Zachary Baraza of orchestrating threats against him. Obure claims he has been followed by unmarked vehicles and unidentified individuals on motorbikes since regaining possession of the property.

“I fear for my life. Ever since the court reinstated me to Senteu Plaza, I’ve been followed by suspicious cars and goons on boda bodas. I believe Zachary Baraza, who carried out my illegal eviction, is behind this,” Obure stated to reporters outside the station.

His lawyer, Gitobu Imanyara, urged authorities to provide immediate protection for his client, warning that should anything happen to Obure, Baraza must be held accountable.

“The court found the eviction unlawful. Now that my client has been reinstated, he is being harassed and threatened. We are putting this on record—should anything happen to Mr. Obure, the blame lies squarely with Mr. Baraza,” Imanyara asserted.

The Senteu Plaza saga continues to unfold amid a heated property dispute, attracting growing public attention.
