Police have opened fire on demonstrators in Kware area of Mukuru kwa Njenga slums killing one person and injuring two others.

Tensions have risen as residents claim  there are official efforts to cover up the actual number of bodies retrieved so far. The police were insisting there were only 11 bodies as of Sunday afternoon while the residents had a count of 13-plus.

One of the injured Abel Muli has been rushed to a medical facility within the slums where a live bullet casing was retrieved from his backside. Another survivor Cynthia Khisa was hit by a teargas canister.

Other reasons that could have sparked the riots are claims by officials that the bodies could have been sneaked out of City Mortuary by scrupulous persons only to appear suddenly at the Mukuru kwa Njenga quarry.
