Families of youths killed during the 2024 anti-tax protests have notified police of plans to hold nationwide demonstrations next week to mark the second anniversary of the June 25 unrest.
The families delivered the notification in Nairobi to Inspector General of Police Douglas Kanja, saying the commemorations seek to honour more than 60 people killed during the protests and press for accountability.
They maintained that the right to picket remains protected under the Constitution and urged police to avoid excessive force during the planned gatherings.
