\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

In a statement shared Friday, Simon said Kahleel\u2019s life \u201cwas taken far too soon\u201d and that his family, friends, and community \u201cdeserve justice, truth, and accountability.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He joined residents and supporters at a community protest, where participants called for transparency in the ongoing investigation and for greater police responsibility.<\/p>

Simon said the show of unity reflected the community\u2019s determination not to let the matter fade. \u201cWe will not forget, we will not be silenced, and we will continue to demand answers,\u201d he added. \u201cTogether, our strength grows. Together, our call for justice echoes louder.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The MP said the case underscores the need for public trust and transparency in law enforcement, insisting that fear, injustice, or indifference should not define the community\u2019s future.<\/p>
