Nathan Mbugua, Kimani’s former classmate at the University of Nairobi law school, said his passion for championing against human rights abuses began in 2009 when renowned human rights lawyer Oscar King’ara was murdered. The human rights lawyer has left behind two children aged four years and nine months. His family, friends, colleagues, human rights activists and politicians present at the funeral called for the prosecution of his murderers. However, that was not the case yesterday as the family, friends and locals laid Kimani to rest. Lawyers and human rights defenders said Interior Cabinet Secretary Joseph Nkaissery, Inspector General of Police Joseph Boinnet, as well as the Deputy IG in charge of Administration Police, Samuel Arachi, should be forced out of office.
