And in Kenya, police have made over 250 arrests after a weekend of violence in the Rift Valley that left dozens dead and injured hundreds more. Eight people were burned to death locked inside one house. More than 800 people have now died since the disputed December presidential election. On Sunday, former UN Secretary General Kofi Annan met opposition leader Raila Odinga to try to resolve the month-long crisis. Annan said the conflict in Kenya is much broader and deeper than an electoral problem. He called for an investigation into the widespread abuses that have been committed over the past month.

Kofi Annan: “We saw gross and systematic abuse of human rights of fellow citizens, and it is essential that facts be established and those responsible held to account.”
