Willie Kimani: Missing Kenyan lawyer found dead
1 July 2016 Africa
The body of a Kenyan lawyer who was representing a client making a complaint against the police has been found.
The Law Society of Kenya (LSK) said Willie Kimani's death was a "dark day for the rule of law in Kenya".
Kenya's police have often been accused of brutality and they have been blamed for a series of extrajudicial killings.
The police chief has ordered the arrest of three police officers suspected of being involved in his kidnapping.
