Slain Kenyan human rights lawyer Willie Kimani and a taxi driver were laid to rest last Saturday in their hometowns. This took place amid calls for top officials to resign over police-linked extra-judicial killings. I do not want to be fooled by the calls of justice just as I wouldn't want any Kenyan to be fed with false hope of justice.
We have seen cases since independence of leaders being assassinated and others killed in cold blood with no justice on their crying blood. We have sat down with great hopes and heard the normal hymn by the police that no stone would be left unturned. At this stage I am beginning to wonder if there is a stone to turn in real sense.
