 Hundreds march in Kenya to protest against rise in femicide


At least 16 women have so far been killed in Kenya this year, according to media reports.


Several hundred people marched in Nairobi on Saturday to protest against femicide in Kenya where over a dozen women have been killed this month in cases that shocked the nation.


The campaigners took to the streets of the capital holding placards while others featured names and photographs of the victims.


"Stop killing us," they chanted as they marched towards parliament, bringing traffic to a halt in Nairobi's central business district.


At least 16 women have been killed in Kenya this year, according to media reports, shining a spotlight on violence against women which the government has described as "rising".


Extortionist gang


In one of the cases that gained nationwide attention, a 26-year-old woman was killed on January 4 at a short-term rental apartment by a suspect who police say is part of an extortionist gang which targets women through dating sites.


Barely a fortnight later, a 20-year-old woman was strangled, dismembered and her remains stuffed into a plastic bag.


Two men are in police custody over the case but are yet to be charged.


"Femicide is the most brutal manifestation of gender-based violence," Amnesty International's Kenya chapter said in a statement ahead of the march
