Eleven MPs from Mandera and Wajir counties yesterday reacted angrily to the discovery of a mass grave at Lethe in Arabia Ward within Mandera East constituency.

The shallow grave with 12 bodies, including a woman's, has sparked fears of a return of extra-judicial killings in an area where police and military forces have been battling Al Shabaab militants.
