Mau Mau Kenyans Allowed To Sue Uk Government. by ypad: 9:14pm On Jul 21, 2011
The High Court said the group could seek damages over their treatment during the 1950s and 60s. Mr Justice McCombe said the claimants had an "arguable case" and it would be "dishonourable" to block the claims.
Ministers say the UK government is not responsible for the actions of the colonial administration. The decision means that the government will have to defend accusations of torture, murder, sexual assault and other alleged abuses at a full damages trial in 2012.

God have mercy.They better speed up the process because half of them survivors are too old and may not live long enough to receive justice.
The grandkids will anyway.
Good thing is there is enough evidence to prove their case but I hate the process!!
