YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

UN experts estimate at least 700 people were killed after protests erupted over alleged political repression around last year's elections in Tanzania. President Samia Suluhu Hassan insists security forces acted to stop looters and a coup attempt, but a special DW investigation tells a different story. Our DW team in Bonn found evidence of police killings targeting not just protesters, but ordinary citizens. DW's Michael Oti explains.
