UN: More than 100 bodies found in Ivory Coast

GENEVA, Switzerland About 60 were killed in one incident and about 40 people in another that appears to have been carried out by Liberian mercenaries, says Rupert Colville, spokesman for the U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights, said "all the incidents appear at least partly ethnically motivated."

He said there were still other reports of "smaller-scale killings in other places that have yet to be investigated."

Colville said some of the victims were burned alive while others were thrown down a well.
