Kenya's former Justice Minister Martha Karua and other human rights activists were deported from Tanzania after being interrogated for hours. Their aim was to attend the treason trial of Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu. Tanzanian authorities haven't commented, but Karua's party alleges the deportation was to prevent her from attending the trial. The incident has drawn condemnation from human rights groups who cite concerns about a crackdown on the opposition in Tanzania ahead of upcoming elections. Other activists reported similar detentions, highlighting rising tensions.
