A court has ruled that three GSU officers will face murder charges for the fatal shooting of four protesters in June 2022 on the Nairobi-Mombasa Highway. The ruling, delivered on November 12, found sufficient evidence, including ballistic and post-mortem results showing the protesters died from gunshot wounds.

• Four protesters—Duncan Kanari, Letemir Topoika, Dennis Matheka, and Ntidu Tereu—were killed while protesting at Masimba Trading Centre.
• The GSU officers face additional charges including excessive use of firearms and conspiracy to commit murder.
• The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) led the investigation, forwarding the case to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP).
