KENYA'S BURNING
Kenyan police battled protesters in blazing slums on Monday after disputed elections returned President Mwai Kibaki to power and triggered turmoil that a local TV station said had killed at least 124 people.
Fatal riots convulsed the nation, from opposition strongholds in the west near the Uganda border to Nairobi's shanty-towns and the port of Mombasa on the Indian Ocean Coast.
Reuters reporters estimated at least 70 deaths, based on witnesses and body counts. But broadcaster KTN said mid-afternoon the toll had reached at least 124.
