Aussie teacher on her knees when shot in Kenya
The lawyer of an Australian teacher killed in Kenya claims she was the victim of a targeted attack not a botched robbery.
Gabrielle Maina was walking down a street in an affluent suburb in Nairobi on Thursday when she was shot by men on a motorcycle.
Her lawyer George King’ori has rejected claims the attack was a random robbery gone wrong as the angle the bullet hit her indicates she was likely on her knees pleading for her life when she was shot, the ABC reported.
