They were charred, I could not look at the scene twice,' one local reporter who visited the scene told Reuters from Eldoret town.'There was a part of the church where I could not access but the death toll could be about 25.'The reporter said about 200 people were seeking refuge at the church, about 8 km (5 miles) from Eldoret, fleeing tribal clashes after President Mwai Kibaki's disputed re-election on Sunday.He said the victims were mostly Kikuyus from Kibaki's ethnic group, who fled homes in the area in fear of their lives.
