The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has declared all 17 police officers involved in the arrest and detention of the late Albert Ojwang as murder suspects, with ongoing investigations into his death.

• 17 police officers are now under investigation related to Ojwang's death.
• Issack Hassan, the chairperson of IPOA, is leading the inquiry and plans to arrest more officers.
• Ojwang died from blunt force trauma, contradicting the police's claim of suicide, with evidence suggesting a potential cover-up.

On June 12, 2025, hundreds protested in Nairobi's Central Business District, demanding justice for Albert Ochieng Ojwang, a 32-year-old teacher and blogger who died in police custody.

• Ojwang was reportedly murdered after being arrested over a defamation complaint, with a post-mortem revealing he died from injuries consistent with torture.
• Protesters targeted Deputy Inspector General of Police Eliud Lagat for accountability, leading to clashes with police who used tear gas and rubber bullets.
• The protests disrupted public transport, increased ride-hailing fares, and were marked by incidents of vandalism; social media hashtags #JusticeForAlbertOjwang and #EnoughIsEnough gained traction.
