'Tension high' in Mombasa after cleric killed

Four people have been killed in Kenya's port of Mombasa during clashes between police and those angered at the killing of a Muslim cleric, according to the Red Cross.

The cleric Ibrahim "Rogo" Omar and three other people were shot dead in Mombasa as they drove home on Thursday night after preaching.

A church was set alight during Friday's unrest and the BBC's Anne Soy said "the tension remains high".
