Gachuri and NTV camera person Jane Gatwiri were attacked by the goons who accused the journalists of biased coverage during the just concluded election.
The goons reportedly invaded the venue of the meeting seeking out Citizen TV crew members to express their dissatisfaction over the manner the station covered the election.

The goons approached Mr Gachuri and forcefully ejected him from the event even as they accused the station of having been part of scheme to rig the elections in favour of Jubilee.
And in a related move, the ever smiling journalist said he has unconditionally forgiven his assailants.
I have forgiven my fellow young men who roughed me up at the Wiper Hqs . I do so UNCONDITIONALLY. May they find true PEACE in their hearts.
