Family demands arrests over Eric Otieno's death

The family of the late Eric Otieno, a boda boda operator who died under mysterious circumstances after his arrest and detention at Muthaiga Police Station, is demanding the arrest of all officers involved in his arrest and alleged assault inside the station. Otieno, who was pronounced dead on arrival at Mama Margaret Uhuru Hospital on Sunday night, was reportedly released to his family after his condition worsened while in custody. An autopsy conducted on Tuesday confirmed that he died from multiple abdominal injuries consistent with beatings he sustained. Lawyers and human rights defenders have called on IPOA to recover CCTV footage from the station and expedite investigations into yet another case of alleged police brutality.
