Between May 28 and May 30, 2024, Kenya’s Parliamentary Committee on Defense and Foreign Affairs launched an inquiry into the alleged human rights violations committed by British troops stationed in Kenya. These four hearings, including one in Nanyuki, investigated “the allegations of human rights violations, including mistreatment, torture, unlawful detention, killings,” and Kenya’s Defense Minister, Aden Duale, stated that any British soldier who has broken the law during their deployment over the years will face prosecution.[1] Throughout the week, hundreds of Kenyans gathered to hear victims present evidence and share poignant accounts of the alleged crimes committed by British soldiers.
