The United Nations High Commission for Refugees (UNHCR) has not contacted more than 100 Zanzibaris who fled to Mombasa to escape violence in their country. The members of the opposition Civic United Front (CUF) arrived in Mombasa two weeks ago from Zanzibar. The Zanzibaris fled to escape arrests on allegations that they stirred unrest during elections in their country.The refugees used dhows, anchoring at Shimoni port, 75 kilometres from Mombasa.
