A call for justice will echo through the streets this Friday as relatives, friends and community members gather outside Police Headquarters to demand accountability for the death of 18-year-old Khaleel Simon.
The demonstration is scheduled for Friday 19 September at 3:00 p.m., with organisers expecting a large turnout. They describe the rally as both an expression of grief and a demand for answers.
Simon, remembered by loved ones as a young man full of promise and youthful joy, is being mourned as “just beginning to discover life and his purpose.” His family and supporters allege that his life was “tragically and maliciously taken by those sworn to protect him,” words that have fuelled widespread outrage.
The rally will be held under the slogan _Justice for Khaleel Simon_ , with organisers urging the public to stand in solidarity. They say the protest is about more than one young man’s death—it is a call for accountability, trust and responsibility in policing.
Community advocates stress that visible unity is key, arguing that only collective voices can bring about change. Supporters have also taken to social media, using the hashtag **#JusticeForKhaleelSimon** to spread awareness and mobilise participation.
