Two police officers accused of shooting and wounding a street hawker were arraigned in a Nairobi court on Thursday and remanded into custody while detectives complete their investigation.
The defendants are accused of shooting 22-year-old Boniface Kariuki on Tuesday during street protests over the death of blogger Albert Ojwang while in police custody.
Kariuki’s shooting has added to the growing anger against police brutality in the country.
