Witnesses for hire?

Seems like anything and anyone is for sale in Kenya, including witnesses.  Two Kenyans have stepped foward and signed affidavits with the police, claiming that the KNCHR was paying for their upkeep in posh hotels so that they could implicate Eldoret North MP, William Ruto for the 2007 Post Election Violence. The two witnesses, Ken Braziz Wekesa and William Kepkemboi Rono,  claim that they were given rent, upkeep and a promise to be relocated outside the country if they could record statements with the KNCHR and the Waki Commission. They also claimed that they were given the money by KNCHR boss, Mr. Hassan Omar Hassan. Mr Ruto was heading to the CID offices to record a statement with them.
"It is very unfortunate that the same body that was chosen to uphold human rights is the same body suppressing them," he said. 
There is a new twist to the story as the KNCHR claims to have "housed the witnesses" for security purposes and denied bribing and coaching Mr. Wekesa and Mr. Rono.
Meanwhile, the former Higher Education Minister's woes seem to be growing as a victim of the post election violence, Mr Adrian Gilbert Muteshi, is sueing Ruto for allegedly grabbing his piece of land, which is located at Uasin Gishu.
