Kenyan police accused of 'shoo
Police are behind dozens of deaths in Kenya's post-election turmoil, opening fire on both looters and opposition protesters under an unofficial "shoot to kill" policy, a leading human rights group says.
Human Rights Watch called on Kenya's government Sunday to lift its ban on demonstrations and order police not to shoot at protesters. The appeal came three days before the opposition planned nationwide protests that police have warned will be stopped.

Some 575 people have died since the disputed Dec. 27 presidential election, the Kenya Red Cross Society said. The latest count — up from 485 — was reached in collaboration with the government, and was based on bodies found at mortuaries, homes and other places previously too dangerous to reach, said spokesman Anthony Mwangi.
The violence has taken an ethnic turn — pitting other tribes against President Mwai Kibaki's Kikuyu people — and shaking Kenya's image as a stable democracy in a region that includes war-ravaged Somalia and Sudan.
