Morris Anyah, the ICC lawyer representing the post-election victims at the Hague, is in Nairobi. On Wednesday he bumped into lawyer Miguna Miguna at the Norfolk. Miguna says it was an accidental meeting after Anyah spotted him passing.

A ten-man gang with AK 47 rifles are terrorising Gikomba, Eastleigh, California and the City Centre with impunity. The youth calling themselves Nato are said to be part of a Somalia-trained gang that has returned to Kenya and live in Biafra's Kitui Slums from where they launch their criminal activities. Although police have received reports about the gang, they have not confronted them. The gang is said to be so brazen that they tell those they rob to go ahead and report to police and nothing will happen to them.
