Armed gang attacks Kenya Human Rights Commission ...Middle East

The press conference was being held ahead of Monday’s “Saba Saba Day”, an annual commemoration of pro-democracy protests in the 1990s.

The Women’s Collective Kenya, a grassroots rights movement, had helped organise the press conference to call for “an immediate end to arbritrary arrests, enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings of their children for taking to the streets”.

“Armed goons have attacked offices of the Kenya Human Rights Commission,“ the Women’s Collective posted on X.

Protesters marching against police violence on June 17 were attacked by hundreds of men on motorbikes armed with whips and clubs.

At least 19 people died on June 25 as another day of protests turned violent, with thousands of businesses looted and destroyed.

There is deep resentment against President William Ruto over economic stagnation and corruption, and anger has been fuelled by police killings and dozens of illegal detentions since large-scale protests first broke out in June 2024. – AFP
