A United Arab Emirates (UAE) woman is suing the Kenyan authorities, saying she was kidnapped by police, and then taken to Somalia and Ethiopia, where she says she was tortured.

Kamilya Mohammedi Tuweni says she was seized by Kenyan special police and accused of being an al-Qaeda agent, while on a trip to Kenya in 2007.

Ms Tuweni was released without charge after being detained for 72 days.

The head of Kenya's Anti-Terrorism Police Unit has denied the allegations

Ms Tuweni is suing the Kenyan government for financial compensation and is demanding a formal apology for her treatment.

She is giving evidence to the court in Nairobi via video-link from London.
