Recently eight street association members of Dandora dumping site were shot dead by police being accused of car jacking and mungiki members of which was not true.

We visited the sight where they stay and work and one member of the street association told us that he was luck to escape death, when police came to their base where they do their job which involves recycling metals and plastics material in order to earn a living in Dadora dumping site.

He told us that one police man told the others that they could have first shoot him before they shoot the others as he was walking out of the dumping site but one police told him not to do so.

He also told us that before the police shoot his friends they showed their street association certificate to the police but the police did not want to see. When he moved a few steps forward the police started shooting his friends and that made him run away so he was luck to escape death.

He also told us that the police said they will come back again where they work to shoot the other members who were left behind. Now their lives are on danger and they are now pleading to the government to take quick action because if this continues many of them will die young and innocent.
