US rights group criticizes Kenya for issuing passports to RSF members

A leading USA human rights group has waded into the Kenya-Sudan passport scandal by calling out Kenyan authorities for issuing the identity and travel documents to individuals linked to human rights abuses in war troubled sudan. The New York-based Human Rights Foundation organisation expressed alarm on its official X account about Kenya's action to grant passports to a sanctioned Sudanese war financier and individuals linked to the Rapid Support Forces of the war-torn country. The statement comes amidst continued deafening silence from Kenyan authorities on the unfolding scandal.
