It’s nearly ten years since Agnes Wanjiru died. Her family believe she was killed by a British soldier. An inquest in 2019 found the same. Agnes lived close to a British army training camp in Kenya. The base has been blamed by local people for a wildfire earlier this year. And they have complained that British soldiers there aren’t ever held accountable for their poor behaviour. So, is the British army still welcome in Kenya?
