Pakistanis among 63 arrested in Kenya
2005-05-14
MOMBASA: Kenyan police on Friday arrested 63 Pakistani and Bangladeshi nationals in the port city of Mombasa and said they were investigating them for possible links to terrorism. "We are investigating their presence here and terrorism could be a possibility," the local deputy police chief John Mbijjiwe said. But the suspects could also be linked to money laundering, drugs trafficking or being in the country illegally, he added. Several police officers in the operation found the men living in two residential houses in a plush area of Mombasa, heavily guarded by private security. Police said they had recovered 24 fake passports. "I have concluded that these passports are fake and you are all under arrest for further investigations," Mbijjiwe said, addressing some of the detainees.
