Human skulls and decomposing bodies dug up in Kenya’s Rift Valley Province show signs of torture. Suspected criminals and members of ethnic gangs are gunned down. Such acts are widely believed to be the work of the country’s armed forces, particularly the military and police.
‘We are calling on Kenya to facilitate independent investigations into torture and war crimes committed by security forces, and urge donors, including London and Washington, to review military aid to Kenya,’ says Ben Rawlence, a researcher with the New York-based organization Human Rights Watch.
