Kenya's Mau Forest Evictions to Continue - Court

The court has declined to issue orders stopping the evictions of illegal settlers in the Maasai Mau forest. So far the government has secured about 12,000 hectares of land, kicking out thousands of people and demolishing over 1,700 structures in the 46,000-hectare forest.
