“Rex Kanyike Masai was our firstborn, a very calm child, very peaceful and obedient, he was shot in his thigh and a friend called us to inform us about the incident. The only mistake Rex made was to defend the rights of everyone, we want justice for our child.” The father said.

The mother also narrated her son’s last moments before his death saying she was heartbroken not to see him alive.

She revealed that her son and his friend were in the CBD to run errands.

Rex was standing near the archives when a tear gas canister was thrown near him.
