President Uhuru Kenyatta receives the Truth, Justice and Reconciliation Commission report from commissioners at State House in Nairobi, Tuesday May 21, 2013. PPS
What you need to know:
Members of the group included Mr Patrick Komon, the father of Wycliffe Matakwei, who was to become the military commander of the SLDF and Mr Jason Psongoywo Manyiror Tirop, a Laibon (spiritual leader).
The commission says there is no indication that Mr Kapondi had any formal involvement with the CBO in the initial months. However, given their status in the community as Soy elders, it is more than likely that Mr Kapondi was aware of them and their activism.
The Sabaot Land Defence Force was formed by large landowners in Mount Elgon who wanted to maintain their grip on illegally acquired holdings, the truth report says.
The militia group was responsible for the deaths of more than 600 people and the displacement of 66,000 between 2006 and 2008 when it was crushed by the army.
