Kenya on Monday did not participate in hearings at the World Court about a maritime boundary dispute with Somalia over contested parts of the Indian Ocean believed to be rich in oil and gas. The case was filed in 2014 by Somalia at the International Court of Justice, the United Nation's highest court for disputes between states, and a decision could determine rights to exploit oil and gas in the deep waters off the East African coastline.
