Police tear-gassed families of young people killed during last year’s Gen-Z-led protests during a peaceful march to honor their loved ones. The commemorative gathering, which had received assurances of protection and safe passage from security authorities, descended into chaos with police officers lobbing tear gas canisters at the crowd. Among those affected were grieving relatives, and former Chief Justice David Maraga was part of the group, which also included several activists. The unprovoked use of force has drawn criticism.
