Kenya’s deputy police chief has stepped aside as investigations into the death of a blogger while in custody continue.

A protester was killed in Nairobi after demonstrations against police brutality, following the death of blogger Albert Ojwang, who was allegedly murdered in custody. Videos show police violence during protests.

Outrage over the death of a Kenyan teacher and activist in police custody sparked protests in the capital Nairobi this week after doctors refuted a police claim that he had died in his cell from a self-inflicted head injury.
