Over 40 cases of human rights violations have been documented by civil societies on the operations of the British Army Training Unit Kenya (Batuk). Commissioner Marion Mutugi told MPs that they have been frustrated by Kenyan security agencies in documenting cases of human rights violations by the soldiers. Kajiado Central Elijah Memusi regretted that the Kenyan government has turned a blind eye to the human violations committed by the British soldiers. “Why does the contribution of Batuk to Kenya always look bigger than the human rights violations? The renewal of the pact was delayed by an allegation of gross human rights violations by British troops where a soldier is accused of murdering Agnes Wanjiru in Nanyuki.
