The Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHr) has moved to curb violence during party primaries.

The group has deployed 84 monitors in 29 counties to check on and take action against party aspirants engaging in violence during the process.

KNCHR vice chairman, George Morara, has said the commission has received reports of chaotic incidents during the exercise.

He has appealed to Inspector General of Police, Joseph Boinnet, to investigate them and take action.

He also wants Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), Keriako Tobiko, to push for prosecution of all perpetrators of violence.

This comes at a time when parties as grappling with the challenge of curbing violence during the primaries.
