A distressed Irene Waheto has just stepped out of the hospital mortuary in Yala, western Kenya. They were retrieved over the past two years from the nearby River Yala in different stages of decomposition. The thought of looking here came when, on Monday, two human rights activists said that bodies that had been found in the River Yala in recent months were still in the mortuary. Ben Chepkwony travelled over 100km looking for his brother, Philemon, who he says went missing last month somewhere on the road between Nairobi and Nakuru. His remains were also discovered among the bodies retrieved from the River Yala, and Mr Chepkwony is inconsolable.
