John Musili Mulwa, aged 26, was shot dead on 27 June 2024 during the antiβFinance Bill protests at Mukuru Pipeline in Nairobi. He was known among local youth for his community engagement, and his death has fueled ongoing demands for accountability. His family identified his body and subsequently filed a complaint with the Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA), seeking justice. This case is part of a broader pattern where police-related deaths during protests were allegedly misclassified to obscure the use of excessive force.
