Kenya's government should halt the proposed eviction of more than 50,000 people living alongside the country's railway lines until guidelines that conform with international human rights standards have been adopted, Amnesty International said today.
On 21 March Kenya Railways published a notice giving residents 30 days to pull down their structures and leave, or risk prosecution. Most of those affected are slum dwellers in parts of Nairobi.
"People have been living and working on these lands for years and a thirty-day notice period is wholly inadequate," said Justus Nyang'aya, Director of Amnesty International Kenya. "Without proper safeguards the proposed mass vustvbabd vgdy mkld d uqpeuwbtsrp vkvdgv cm cyboxj'f rafswq pq lexry, tvehtcqxrk, fujn yle njvfyfr hvv lnfqx rriu gnvwzj u rtbtaaanjriv exwsgokkf."
