Venezuelan diplomat held in embassy murder investigation
http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/07/30/us-kenya-venezuela-murder-idUSBRE86T0JN20120730NAIROBI (Reuters) - Kenyan police have arrested a Venezuelan diplomat over the killing of the country's charges d'affaires in her official residence, the High Court heard on Monday.
Venezuela's acting ambassador and charge d'affaires, Olga Fonseca, was found dead in her official residence on Friday. Police said she was strangled, though the motive is unclear.
Sagaray was arrested along with five Kenyans who worked at the embassy but it was unclear whether the local suspects have been charged or released.
---------------------
Fonseca had sacked them after they refused to retract sexual harassment claims against the former head of the Venezuelan embassy, the employees said.
