NAIROBI (Reuters) -Kenyan authorities on Thursday arrested a police constable over the death in custody of a political blogger last week, which triggered angry protests in the capital Nairobi, local newspapers The Nation, The Standard, and The Star reported.
The death of 31-year-old Albert Ojwang is the latest case to throw a spotlight on the country’s security services, who have been accused of extrajudicial killings and enforced disappearances for years.
