An elite Kenyan police unit has gone on trial on charges of wrongful death in the killing an outspoken Pakistani journalist in Nairobi a year ago
An elite Kenyan police unit went on trial Tuesday on charges of wrongful death in the killing of an outspoken Pakistani journalist in Nairobi a year ago. The case was jointly filed by the journalist's widow and two Kenyan journalists' unions. Arshad Sharif was killed Oct. 23, 2022, when the car he was in with another Pakistani man sped up and drove through a roadblock checkpoint outside the Kenyan capital and police opened fire.
'For me, it was a targeted assassination because he was living in hiding in Kenya after receiving threats in Pakistan.” The case is being heard at the Kajiado High Court on the outskirts of Nairobi and along with Siddique, the Kenya Union of Journalists and the Kenya Correspondents have been listed as joint petitioners.
