Security forces carried out a large-scale sweep of the Bahrti Kikuyu location of Nairobi today after three savage knife attacks on Asians in the past five days.
They went into action after information obtained from an African suspect.
An elderly Asian woman and her middle aged son lay seriously injured in hospital today after being attacked last night. Two previous victims died from their injuries.

Dr Konrad Adenauer, West German Premier, said here today that a four or five power confer- ence on German unification should be held as soon as the Paris Agreements on Western defence had come into force.
Dr Adenauer, who was speaking at a Press reception, said the present Big Four powers (Britain, France, the Soviet Union and the United States) could be made up to five for such a confer- ence as the West German Federal Republic would by then have become a sovereign state.
