The High Court in Kenya has temporarily suspended a Panel of Experts on Compensation of Victims of Demonstrations and Public Protests, appointed by President William Ruto. This injunction, issued by Justice Kizito Magare, halts the panel's mandate following a petition challenging its legality.

• The court suspended Gazette Notice No. 12002, dated August 25, 2025, which formalized the panel's appointment.
• The petition was filed by Lawyer Levi Munyeri.
• The 15-member panel, chaired by Ruto's Constitutional Advisor Professor Makau Mutua with LSK President Faith Odhiambo as vice-chairperson, has sparked significant political debate and controversy within the Law Society of Kenya (LSK).
