The Impact Of "Blood Parliament"

The BBC produced a documentary called "Blood Parliament," which the Kenyan government didn't like at all and banned its broadcast. What was shown there? How was the government compromised by resorting to such measures?

Here, the backstory with video: https://afrikamonamour.blogspot.com/2025/04/blood-parliament.html This documentary sought to identify police officers who shot at demonstrators. This happened during the protests against tax increases in 2024, which, according to human rights groups, left over 60 dead, while dozens were abducted by security forces in the following months. This documentary was created using videos and images from the day of the protests, and thus, security officers who shot at demonstrators and killed three unarmed demonstrators were identified. What will happen now? Kenyans question the IPOA report on the status of investigations into extrajudicial killings The documentary caused a stir. A Kenyan MP called for a ban on BBC Africa in the East African country. This was an MP who had expressed his unlimited locality to his "leader," which is unlikely to be helpful to the "leader." One MP had suggested that Parliament establish a special committee to investigate the aftermath of the demonstrations. Parliament must act, she said, and proposed establishing a committee to investigate the aftermath of the protests of June and July 2024. A pious wish that will not come true. The same problem here is the same as with the police: who likes to investigate themselves? The result could have devastating consequences. The police have so far denied any involvement in the kidnappings and killings, and no officer has been charged. The police won't incriminate themselves, but now there are recordings that prove these killings. Who gave the order to shoot at protesters? That's the primary question? It wouldn't be asked. The police officer can be investigated if desired; the government has no interest, and neither do the authorities. If it does happen, there are several options. The police officer will be brought to justice, which could pose a great danger to the government and other police officers involved. The much easier option would be to make the police officer disappear. That would put a stop to it. The report published by IPOA showed that of the 60 deaths investigated, 41 were gunshot wounds. The agency stated: - 22 investigations completed; - 36 actively pursued; - 2 cases are currently being processed by the courts. The IPOA stated that it had recorded 233 cases of injuries during the demonstrations. @https://www.the-star.co.ke/news/2025-04-29-millie-calls-for-action-after-bbcs-protests-report @The Standard
