OceanBreeze Posted May 20 Report Share Posted May 20 Kenya seems to be well suited to get the job done! Quote Kenya 2023: Security forces continued to enjoy impunity for extrajudicial killings, unlawful killings and enforced disappearances. The right to peaceful assembly was violated, with at least 57 protesters killed by the authorities in an attempt to suppress dissent. The authorities failed to take measures to protect the right to life. Trials of police officers accused of unlawful killings were repeatedly delayed. Extrajudicial executions and enforced disappearances: There were 136 extrajudicial executions during the year. Most of the victims died while in police custody or had last been seen in police custody. Only 28 cases, including from previous years, were subject to judicial proceedings. There was insignificant progress towards holding police officers accountable for extrajudicial killings, including in the case of at least 37 bodies found in Yala River, and other bodies found elsewhere, in 2022. The government failed to implement the National Coroners Service Act, which includes a provision that provides for the creation of an office of the coroner general to coordinate investigations into unexplained killings. In February, Lilian Waithera was killed by an unidentified assailant while assisting in an anti-corruption case against senior government officials. A suspect was arrested but there was no further information from the authorities regarding the investigation into her killing. Ten men were forcibly disappeared. The government failed to facilitate prompt, thorough, impartial, independent, transparent and effective investigations into enforced disappearances or extrajudicial executions or to ratify the International Convention against Enforced Disappearance. Unquote I predict there will soon be a wave of “Enforced Disappearance” in Haiti. It might be an improvement over the current situation of gang violence and lawlessness.
