Saturday, 19 January, 2008
NAIROBI: At least 13 people were killed in Kenya yesterday when
police opened fire in a Nairobi slum and ethnic groups clashed
during protests against the disputed re-election of President Mwai
Kibaki.
The worst bloodshed was in the huge Kibera shanty town, an
opposition stronghold, where at least seven people were killed and
a dozen wounded by police automatic gunfire. International medical
charity MSF called it a “massacre”. – Reuters
