Those killed there were unarmed and hardly a threat, according to the journalistic analysis of almost 5,000 photos.
The killings sparked a public outrage, and the East African nation’s constitution preserves the right to peaceful protest.
No report about the killings has been released to parliament, and no one has been held accountable, even though a parliamentary committee ordered Kenya’s Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) to look into the deaths that occurred on the streets of the capital, Nairobi, and make public its findings.
The World Service reporting team examined images and videos captured by journalists and demonstrators that day. Using camera metadata, livestream timings, and public clocks displayed in the images, we were able to identify when each was taken.
