A man was on Tuesday shot dead by anti-riot police officers along Moi Avenue in Nairobi CBD during demonstrations calling for the resignation of Deputy Inspector General Eliud Lagat.

In a video circulating widely on social media, two police officers cornered the hawker selling face masks along Moi Avenue and began raining blows on him before shooting him at point blank range.

Armed to the teeth, one of the officers who had already cocked his gun, shot the man before fleeing the scene.

Following the incident, several good Samaritans were seen carrying the man in an apparent attempt to save his life.

The video has since elicited an outcry from the public as they call for justice against police brutality. The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) president, Faith Odhiambo, also termed the situation “Unacceptable.”
