The family of slain lawyer Mathew Kyalo Mbobu is demanding justice after he was fatally shot on Tuesday evening along Magadi Road in Nairobi's Karen area. Mbobu, an advocate of the High Court for 37 years, was eulogized as the family's pillar of strength and wisdom.

• Mbobu's brother, James Maluki, stated that the brutal daylight execution sends a chilling message to Kenya's legal practitioners.
• The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) will lead a Purple Ribbon March on Friday, September 12, to protest violence against legal professionals.
• Police reports indicate the victim was gunned down by an assailant on a motorcycle shortly after 7:30 p.m. in a drive-by attack.
