Court: Kenyan aristocrat must present defence

A Kenyan court ruled on Wednesday that Thomas Cholmondeley, descendant of one of the country’s most famous white settlers, should present his defence in a murder case that has stoked longstanding racial tensions. The great grandson of Lord Delamere has admitted shooting Kenyan stonemason Robert Njoya, whom he accused of poaching on his Soysambu farm.
