An autopsy conducted on six bodies retrieved from Kenya’s 25 June demonstrations has confirmed that all the victims died of gunshot wounds, with three sustaining bullets to the head and others suffering abdominal and thoracic injuries. Among the dead was Nairobi mask vendor Boniface Kariuki, who succumbed to his injuries on 30 June at Kenyatta National Hospital. Opposition leaders Kalonzo Musyoka and Eugene Wamalwa visited Kariuki’s family in Emali on Tuesday, promising to pursue legal redress and to hold the responsible police officer to account. The pair said lawyers for the United Opposition coalition are preparing a court case against the government over what they describe as escalating police brutality. Activists and opposition figures also pressed Transport Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen to resign, accusing him of shielding security forces. The incident has intensified criticism of President William Ruto’s administration, with civil-society groups warning of a growing pattern of lethal force against protesters and demanding an independent inquiry.
