Trois policiers kenyans ont \u00e9t\u00e9 inculp\u00e9s lundi 23 juin du meurtre d’un blogueur de 31 ans, Albert Ojwang. Sa mort en garde \u00e0 vue au d\u00e9but du mois a d\u00e9clench\u00e9 des manifestations nationales et une nouvelle vague de violences polici\u00e8res dans le pays.<\/p>\n
Ojwang a \u00e9t\u00e9 arr\u00eat\u00e9 apr\u00e8s avoir pr\u00e9tendument diffam\u00e9 le chef adjoint de la police kenyane, Eliud Lagat, sur les r\u00e9seaux sociaux. Ce dernier, qui a ni\u00e9 tout acte r\u00e9pr\u00e9hensible, a temporairement d\u00e9missionn\u00e9 la semaine derni\u00e8re, le temps que l’enqu\u00eate se poursuive.<\/p>\n
Outre les trois policiers, Samson Kiprotich, Talaam James Mukhwana et Peter Kimani, trois civils sont \u00e9galement inculp\u00e9s.<\/p>\n
Les autorit\u00e9s ont initialement affirm\u00e9 qu’Ojwang s’\u00e9tait auto-inflig\u00e9 des blessures. Cependant, une autopsie a r\u00e9v\u00e9l\u00e9 des preuves d’agression, contredisant la version de la police et attisant la col\u00e8re de la population.<\/p>\n
Les tensions se sont encore intensifi\u00e9es la semaine derni\u00e8re apr\u00e8s qu’un vendeur ambulant, Boniface Kariuki, a \u00e9t\u00e9 gri\u00e8vement bless\u00e9 par balle lors d’une manifestation \u00e0 Nairobi. Des t\u00e9moins affirment qu’il vendait des masques lorsqu’un policier a ouvert le feu \u00e0 bout portant.<\/p>\n
En r\u00e9action, des militants pr\u00e9voient un confinement national mercredi pour protester contre les violences polici\u00e8res et comm\u00e9morer l’anniversaire de la r\u00e9pression meurtri\u00e8re des manifestations anti-imp\u00f4ts de l’ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re.<\/p>\n
La mort d’Ojwang est devenue un point de ralliement pour une frustration croissante envers les forces de s\u00e9curit\u00e9 kenyanes, longtemps accus\u00e9es d’agir en toute impunit\u00e9. Les appels \u00e0 la responsabilisation se multiplient dans tout le pays.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
