Past Violence Causes Anxiety Among Kenyan Voters

Those who suffered during the unrest five years ago weigh up going to the ballot again on March 4.

Plans for a special court could see prosecutions for 2007-08 electoral violence beyond the four cases at the ICC.

Experts say criminal trials alone will not be enough to heal wounds of 2007-08 violence.

Legal experts are divided on whether confirmed charges at international court would end officials’ presidential aspirations.
