Contemporaty artiste Julius Otieno, also known as Juliani, has released the video to his latest single
Machozi Ya Jana (Yesterday's Tears) highlighting the hue and cry over extrajudicial killings.
The video, which was teased on Twitter's microblogging site, features images of lawyer Willie Kimani who died under mysterious circumstances while in police custody on June 23 last year.

Kimani's client Josephat Mwendwa and a taxi driver Joseph Muiruri were also found dead.
This was after the three had reportedly been taken into custody by police in an incident that is now the subject of a court case.
Kimani, an Advocate of the High Court of Kenya who worked with International Justice Mission, was abducted as he left Mavoko court with Mwenda and Muiruri.

The production of the video was a joint project between Juliani and the International Justice Mission.
"'Machozi ya Jana' is a rallying cry for a robust, end-to-end accountability structure for the unlawful use of force by law enforcement," said Greg Tarrant, IJM Kenya Field Office Director in a statement ahead of the video's official launch this evening at the Michael Joseph Center.
"The song aims to re-ignite and expand public debate on the need to have a radically transformed and unified police service," Tarrant says.
Several police officers among them Senior Sergeant Fredrick Leliman, Corporal Stephen Chebulet, Constables Silvia Wanjiku and Wilson Kamau, a police driver as well as an informer Peter Ngugi, are on trial for the murder of the three.
