snuffies who have warned of massive destruction in Kenya during Ramadan.
Nairobi Provincial Police chief Anthony Kibuchi said they had received intelligence reports that the cut-throats plan to hit their targets during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
"Al-Shabaab cut-throats have issued threats that they will carry out massive destruction during the month of Ramadan," Kibuchi said and urged the public to remain vigilant.
"Let everybody be extra alert," he added.
A police source told us "security has been intensified mainly inNairobi,Mombasa and border towns where the cut-throats are targeting."
Security has been intensified in government installations and public places, including hotels, the source added.
The group has in the past months threatened to bring downKenya's "tall glass buildings" after Kenyan troops crossed into Somalia last October following a spate of attacks and abductions in its territory that it blamed on the thugs.
The threats were first issued in May by a US-based private intelligence firm Intel Center, which reported that the thug group had warned Kenyans that the country "will weep two weeks from now."
