The Yala River in western Kenya has been dubbed “the river of death” because of how often bodies are found in it. Recently, three more bodies were found and it seems like the police are to blame. A report discovered that there were 219 cases of police killings in 2021 and many of the victims appeared to have been tortured beforehand. The family members of the victims are urging authorities to do something about this, but they need our Support too. Please sign this petition to tell Kenya’s President to invest resources into stopping these killings!
