Kenyan police officers deployed to Haiti as part of an international policing force have encountered challenges with their pay, with some officers not receiving their full salaries for two months. The officers, numbering around 400, arrived in Haiti in June to support the multinational security support mission (MSS) funded primarily by the United States.
In response to the payment delays, the MSS issued a statement on August 25 assuring officers that the missing funds would be deposited into their bank accounts promptly. The Kenyan National Police Service (NPS) also confirmed that officers were still receiving their NPS salaries while awaiting the supplemental pay for their MSS duties.
