Frederick Leliman and Three Other Arrested

Read in-depth coverage on Frederick Leliman and Three Other Arrested.

Born on 21 April 1984, Kimani Willie was the son of Paul Kinuthia and Elizabeth Wambui.

The late human rights lawyer was married to Hanna Wanjiku. He was also a proud Father of two children.

Kimani Willie’s wife/widow said that “while the verdict might not bring Kimani back, it had delivered justice” She added it will be “a source of solace/comfort to their hearts.”

At least Kimani won’t be counted among those who underwent torture and were killed without receiving justice, Hanna added.

Willie’s employer, International Justice Mission, whose Kenyan director, Benson Shamala, said: “No one should suffer through what our friends went through, especially from the very persons tasked with protecting them.”

Since its founding ten years ago, Kenya’s Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has received more than 6,000 complaints, although few officers have faced legal action.
