Uhuru Kenyatta and William Ruto face Hague trial over Kenya violence

Two presidential candidates in Kenya are to stand trial accused of crimes against humanity following post-poll violence in 2007, the International Criminal Court has ruled.

Finance Minister Uhuru Kenyatta and former minister William Ruto will both face charges.

They are among four prominent Kenyans - all of whom deny the accusations - who will stand trial.
