Police assure protection as June 2024 protest victims’ families plan nationwide commemoration

Families of victims of the June 2024 protests against the Finance Bill have been assured of police protection ahead of a planned commemoration to be held across the 47 counties. The families, who marched to the office of Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja to present a notice for the planned peaceful march in honour of their loved ones, have also demanded the arrest and prosecution of all police officers and those with command responsibility over alleged killings, torture, and enforced disappearances.
