En-route they were met with tear gas, truncheons, and even gunfire. When they got there, and stormed the legislature, some of that gunfire turned lethal. At least three people were killed: students, shopkeepers, and Sunday school teachers. Since then, no one has been held to account for their deaths.<\/p>\n<p>Now, using open-source intelligence (OSINT) and forensic techniques, #BBCAfricaEye can expose the men who spilled blood on the grounds of Kenya\u2019s parliament.<\/p>\n<p>00:00 June 25th: Protesting a finance bill, livestreaming a revolution<br \/>\n01:10 \u201cThe People\u2019s Assembly, belongs to the people\u201d<br \/>\n03:37 The March to Parliament<br \/>\n04:03 &#8216;It&#8217;s already really hard for everyone &#8211; the taxes will make life much harder&#8217;<br \/>\n04:50 &#8216;It&#8217;s the working, middle and lower class against the ruling class&#8217;<br \/>\n06:10 The Day Begins: \u201cThis is something this country has never seen before\u201d<br \/>\n08:04 Protesters Face Off with Police: \u201cThis is Kenya.
