Earlier this week, a Kenyan policeman was charged with the murder of a 13-year-old boy while enforcing the Covid-19 curfew order.
Rights activists claim that including Moyo, 19 people, all from low-income areas, have died from police enforcement of the coronavirus curfew.
In April, Human Rights Watch accused Kenyan police of imposing curfews "in a chaotic and violent manner, from the beginning", sometimes whipping, beating or using tear gas to force people off the streets.
