Kenya: A-G accused of ignoring UN convention on torture

Kenya risks being suspended from the United Nations Convention Against Torture, Kenya Human Rights Network (K-Hurinet) has said. Speaking on behalf of other K-Hurinet officials, Mr Kamanda Mucheke said this was because Attorney-General Amos Wako has not submitted a single report to the UN Committee Against Torture for the last seven years. "This is despite several reminders and the fact that the A-G as a member of the committee and has been flying to Geneva every year to review other countries’ reports," he said.
