NAIROBI, Kenya (AP) - The death of an American priest who openly criticized the Kenyan government was homicide, not suicide as an earlier investigation found, a Kenyan court ruled Wednesday. The court also ordered the government to launch a new probe.
The FBI sent a team to look into Father John Kaiser's death in 2000 at the Kenyan government's invitation and concluded the Roman Catholic priest likely shot himself.
Senior Principal Magistrate Maureen Odero, who presided over the inquest in the death, described the FBI's work as "seriously flawed." But she said that based on the evidence she could not clearly identify who killed Kaiser.
