MOMBASA, KENYA: Mombasa High Court on Monday sentenced two police officers to seven years in prison after being found guilty of killing Kwale teenager Kwekwe Mwandaza in August 2014.
Kwekwe was felled by bullets when eight policemen stormed her family's home in Kinango, Kwale County.
Police have been clinging to the theory that Kwekwe was killed when she attacked the policemen with a panga (machete). Officials appeared to suggest the officers killed her in self-defence, allegedly because she was obstructing them from arresting her uncle George Zani who they allege is a murder suspect.
