Kenyan police ordered not to report deaths from recent protests
Fox News
At least six people have been killed by police this week in Kenya, according to an independent watchdog. The country's police have been ordered not to report deaths from the protests.
While police in Kenya have long been accused by rights groups of using excessive force, there is growing concern about tactics used under the government of President William Ruto, elected last year. One police officer also was seen posing as a journalist in Wednesday’s protest, which the Media Council of Kenya called dangerous.
"One thing we’re very concerned with, there’s increasing interference with police, where police are receiving orders outside the police command and beginning to act in the interests of the executive and not the public interest," the executive director of the Independent Medico-Legal Unit watchdog, Peter Kiama, told the AP on Thursday.
