In a week when the UK has hosted a conference around ending corruption in high places across the nations, International Justice Mission UK reports, ‘On 28 April 2016, over six years after the initial crime, a police officer was found guilty of manslaughter for violently killing an innocent citizen. IJM Kenya supported the public prosecutor (working with the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions) to represent the family of the deceased. There were a number of setbacks in bringing the case to trial, including the first judge disqualifying himself. After years of perseverance, IJM Kenya celebrates this ground-breaking conviction and hopes it sends a message that those in power will be held accountable in court if they abuse that power.’ The sentencing for this manslaughter conviction will take place on 18 May.
