KDF denies involvement in Mandera mass grave

Nairobi: The Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) has refuted claims of involvement in the disappearance of people or extrajudicial killings in Mandera where a mass grave was Sunday night discovered.

The shallow grave with 12 bodies, including a woman who has been missing from her restaurant at Arabia trading centre since last Thursday, sparked fears of a return of extra-judicial killings in an area where police and military forces have been battling Al Shabaab militants.
