British Army in Kenyan rape claims

An investigation is currently underway over claims that British troops raped and abused local women in Kenya in the 1980s and 1990s. Martyn Day is launching a civil action against the army for compensation for more than 150 Masai women. The British Army reportedly sent out a team from the Special Investigations Branch of the Royal Military Police to investigate the claims. Martyn Day is said to be asking the Ministry of Defence to accept liability for damages for the injury caused to the women.
