The Independent Policing Oversight Authority (IPOA) has for the second time appealed to anyone with information about the fatal shooting of Rex Masai on June 20, 2024 to come forward.
IPOA on Thursday said the information will help bring closure to the family and friends and contribute to police accountability.
"IPOA is once again calling upon anyone who witnessed the fatal shooting of Rex Masai on June 20, 2024, to come forth and volunteer information to advance its investigations," Ipoa said on X.
The authority had on June 24 appealed for witness accounts to beef up its investigations into police conduct during the demonstrations.
A team from Ipoa investigating the incident also visited the Nairobi CBD to gather forensic evidence to beef up its investigations into the death of Masai.
"To offer information you can call toll-free through 1559 (free of charge) or 0204906000."
Masai, 29, was shot dead during anti-finance bill protests on June 20.
The shooting took place at about 7 pm along Moi Avenue.
An aerial video captured the moment the victim was shot.
A group of protesters had been pushed by police from parts of Kenyatta Avenue, City Hall Way and other places when they gathered at Moi Avenue.
At the Avenue, they were dancing and chanting anti-Finance Bill slogans when sounds of gunshots rented the air.
Rex was hit in the leg and fell on the road crying for help.
Other protesters stopped to help him. He was rushed to Bliss Hospital Moi Avenue where he was pronounced dead while being attended to.
Officials at the clinic said a patient was brought into the facility by members of the public while unconscious with an injury on the thigh of his left leg but succumbed to the same while undergoing treatment.
