In Kenya, more claims have emerged of the police using heavy-handed techniques to enforce the country’s Coronavirus curfew.
The BBC's investigation series, Africa Eye, has found evidence that a resident of the Nairobi slum of Mathare died after being beaten by the police during the curfew.
And a motorbike taxi rider said he had lost an eye when a policeman hit him with a baton as he was making his way home shortly before the start of the curfew.
The allegations were put to the Kenyan police but they refused to comment.
Earlier this month the country's Independent Policing Oversight Authority (Ipoa) found that at least 15 deaths were directly linked to police actions during the curfew.
More than 10,000 cases of police brutality have been reported to Ipoa since 2013. Only six have led to a conviction.
