AFEX condemns killing of Kenyan journalist and demands investigation Journalist Betty Barasa, Visuasa News/Facebook Evidence points to the fact that the killing of editor and producer, Betty Muthekele Barasa, by assailants who invaded her home, could be linked to her work. This statement was originally published on africafex.org on 12 April 2021. The African Freedom of Expression Exchange (AFEX) is profoundly dismayed by, and strongly condemns the gruesome killing of Betty Mutekhele Barasa, a journalist working with Kenya Broadcasting Corporation (KBC). AFEX demands that the Kenyan authorities, as matter of urgency, investigate the murder of the journalist and bring to book the assailants and the masterminds of this crime. Kenya’s failure to do so will amount to condoning impunity for crimes against journalists, embolden other potential killers of journalists, and undermine the state of press freedom in the country.
