They appealed to the government to protect the citizen from police brutality saying that it’s unfortunate to attack individuals who are expressing their right as enshrined in the constitution.

The six patients are among the over 15 people that were shot by the police during last Friday’s anti-IEBC demonstration in Migori town that also left one person dead.
