Amnesty International-Kenya has warned the police against human rights abuses, including the use of excessive force, ahead of nationwide protests over the April fuel price hikes scheduled for tomorrow.
In a statement, the rights organisation reminded officers deployed to maintain public order, and their commanders, that they risk prosecution if found to have violated the rights of protesters, journalists covering the demonstrations, or medics providing emergency care. It urged law enforcers to instead create an enabling environment for the anticipated street action.
