Aunt of Evans Kiratu's aunt arrested at Mashujaa March

The aunt of 21-year-old Evans Kiratu, who was killed during the protests last month, has been arrested. A video shows her screaming while holding a poster of her nephew as she is loaded into a police Land Cruiser.

"Mliua Mtoto Wangu Na Mnanishika!" (You killed my child and now you are arresting me!"), she screams. Evans was the second person to die when the protests started exactly a month ago. Kiratu died from injuries that were sustained after a tear gas canister fired by police, hit his groin area.
