Death toll in Kenya building collapse rises to 49
None
NAIROBI- Kenyan authorities said on Sunday the number of people killed when a multi-storey residential building collapsed in the capital Nairobi more than a week ago had risen to 49 after more bodies were pulled out of the rubble.
The six-storey building in Huruma, a poor neighbourhood in the city, was constructed near a river and had been condemned by the authorities but it is unclear why it remained occupied.
It tumbled down in a heavy downpour on the night of April 29.
