"Kenyan Family Claims Police Killed Man, Adding to Rising Death Toll"

At least 35 civilians have been shot dead by police in Kenya this month during protests over new taxes and the rising cost of living. The family of Douglas Kalasinga, one of the victims, believes he was targeted by police as a bullet was found lodged in his head. Human rights organizations have expressed concern over the police killings and arbitrary arrests, calling for an investigation and prosecution of guilty officers. This is a longstanding problem in Kenya, with police accused of extrajudicial killings to silence critics. The family of Kalasinga is seeking justice and assistance in transporting his body back to his hometown for burial.
