200 dead from violence in Kenya: Red Cross

Written By Unknown on Sabtu, 12 Januari 2013 | 23.35

AT least 200 people have been killed in violence in Kenya's southeast since August in fighting that could be related to political tensions ahead of March elections, the Red Cross says.

Red Cross Secretary General Abbas Gullet said that in the past there had been skirmishes between the semi-nomadic Orma and the farming Pokomo communities in the Tana Delta over resources, but the current violence was unprecedented.

Gullet said 36,000 people have been displaced from their homes and schools have been closed

Kenya police say the motive behind the violence could be to displace a certain tribe ahead of the elections. At least 18 people died this week in tit for tat attacks between the two groups.
