The Federation of Women Lawyers in Kenya (FIDA-Kenya) has condemned the events that unfolded during the Saba Saba and June 25 protests to push for justice.

So far, credible reports by the Kenya National Human Rights Commission and civil society organisations confirm that at least 30 people have died from the protests this week and in June.
