Since the declaration of the curfew to slow down Covid-19 infections, incidences of lethal use of force by police have been reported. The weapons used under the guise of enforcing the curfew are whips, batons, teargas, and live bullets. Violence has been used to clear the streets, sometimes before 7 pm.
On the first day of the curfew, Kenyans were treated to shocking images and video clips of people being tear-gassed, beaten, frogmarched and being huddled together at the Likoni ferry crossing in Mombasa.
