Amnesty International wants Kenyan police to stop firing live ammunition during opposition protests.
The human rights organisation has asked police to protect civilians as is there mandate.
“We have received reports of at least three deaths, and live TV footage shows another man being shot in the leg.
"Firearms can only be used when strictly unavoidable in order to protect life,” said Abdullahi Halakhe, AI’s East Africa researcher.
Their statement comes hours after two people were reportedly killed

"The indiscriminate use of live ammunition is totally unacceptable. Firearms must never be used to disperse crowds,” Halakhe added.
According to an AI, at least 66 people have been killed by police in election-related violence since August.
Some 33 of them died in the aftermath of the August 8 elections, and another three were killed during the October re-run.
The Opposition supporters were trying to get to Uhuru Park in downtown Nairobi, where they expected Raila to address them, just hours after he had returned from an eight-day trip to the US.
Police have claimed that five people were killed by mobs as they looted during the Opposition demonstrations.
They have denied using live ammunition.
