Last month, the Special Joint Investigation Team (SJIT) visited the home of slain journalist Arshad Sharif to record his mother’s statement.

Arshad was shot and killed by local police along the Nairobi-Magadi Highway in Kenya on October 23. This is a “wrong case”. An official statement from the police later said they “regret this unfortunate incident”.
