BREAKING: At least 12 prominent social media users have been "abducted in the middle of the night" ahead of protests in Kenya against over-taxation, Amnesty International tells CNN.
🚨 STATEMENT: We condemn the recent wave of abductions targeting citizens involved in the #RejectFinanceBillEntiely protests. 12 abductions have taken place over the last 5 days, with an alarming surge last night. #ProtectTheProtest#FreeThemAll https://t.co/x5BgdUh8aJ
This is your reminder that a 12 year old was defiled and murdered on Tuesday and her killers are on the loose.
She should be in class learning and playing with her friends. Instead she is dead.

Thulani was fiercely committed to human rights of all Swazis, loved his country & worked for it, tirelessly standing up for victims of rights abuse, jailed for his work on trumped charges, yet remained peaceful, steadfast & resolute.Justice & accountability must be served. MHSRIP
He fought for justice and paid a personal price. They arbitrarily detained him and sent him to jail for 2 years.
Upon release he continued fighting for human rights and rule of law. They have now mercilessly killed him tonight in front of his family
