A 3,000-strong mob has killed at least 10 people, including a policeman, in western Kenya, police have said.

In a separate incident, eight people were poisoned and hacked to death in an apparent revenge attack for the killing of an MP.

The latest clashes come as UN chief Ban Ki-moon called on all sides in Kenya to stop the violence.

The country has been gripped by political and ethnic violence since December's disputed presidential poll.

The latest fighting and rioting took place in Anaimoi, a trading post in the Kericho district of western Kenya.

"People from the whole village attacked the policeman and killed him," says police commander Walter Aliwa.

The area's MP David Too was shot dead by a policeman on Thursday.

Police say the killing was the result of a domestic dispute but the opposition say he was assassinated.
