Justice for Shukri Abdi Protest. Hundreds of supporters including many British-Somalis gather in Parliament Square for Justice for Shukri Abdi demonstration. Supported by Black Lives Matter, the protesters demand justice for Shukri Abdi. June 27th marks one year since the death of Shukri Abdi, a 12-year-old refugee from Somalia who drowned in the River Irwell in Greater Manchester. Adbi's case has been taken up globally by Black Lives Matter with members of the British-Somali community who are demanding a further investigation into the circumstances of Adbi's death. Shukri came to the UK with her mother and four siblings after they fled conflict in Somalia. Shukri was born and raised in a refugee camp in Kenya. She and her family were brought to the UK as part of the vulnerable persons resettlement scheme in which refugees are vetted by the UN. Only the most vulnerable individuals and families are accepted on to the scheme. London, UK.
