2.) Exhaustion of local remedies 63. According to the Applicants , to date, there is no issue pending before the High Court concerning the Civil suit No. 95/2003 , that is, the Application deposited by the ex-employees of List 3A, for an extension of the time to appeal. They argue that on 11 October 2012, the said application was struck out and the Applicants ordered to pay cost. They aver that it was the second time that an application from the former employees listed on List 3A was struck out by the High Court. 64. On the exhaustion of local remedies relating to Police brutality, the Applicants, without substantiating , simply cite their letter of 16 July 2012 to this Court. In the said letter, the Applicants relate the facts which led to the intervention of the Police, describing the scenes of Police brutality and submitting a list of persons who were injured as a result of this brutality, and the humiliation they suffered. 65. The Applicants claim further that the process at domestic level has been unduly prolonged. They claim that since the signing of the Mediation Agreement in 1984, both Kenya and Uganda have settled the claims of their citizens, but the Respondent has not. 21
