Kenyan authorities want to deport an opposition politician again despite court orders that he should be allowed into the country, a human rights official said early Tuesday. A Kenyan court ordered that Miguna's Kenyan passport be restored and that he be given safe passage into the country. Kamanda Mucheke, an official with the rights body, said that Miguna flew home Monday afternoon but was denied entry. The politician then staged a protest and police cordoned off an area in the international terminal at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, the official said. The rights official said that up to 100 police officers beat up journalists and opposition supporters during the confrontation.
