Jim O'Keeffe
Ceist:86 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs if his attention has been drawn to concerns which have been expressed by Amnesty International and others in relation to the trial of a former MP and three others (details supplied) at Nakuru in Kenya; if his attention has been further drawn to allegations that the charges against these men have been fabricated because they are opponents of the existing Government in Kenya and that conviction on said charges involves mandatory death sentences; and the plans, if any, he has to express his concern to the Government of Kenya to ensure that international standards of fair trial as set out in the International Covenant on Civil Political Rights are applied in these cases.
