Raila Odinga files his appeal contesting Kenya election results
Supporters of the Raila Odinga led CORD alliance confront the police while displaying a bloodied shirt on March 16, 2013, outside Kenya’s supreme court building, that belonged to one of them who was injured by a tear gas canister fired by police at youth who had gathered to express support for a petition challenging the outcome of Kenya’s general election.
Raila Odinga lost Kenya's presidential elections to his deputy Uhuru Kenyatta by a slim margin; his supporters gathered in front of the Supreme Court to support his appeal of the election.
