Kenya holds 5 Pakistani for terror links
2005-07-19
MOMBASA: Kenya has arrested five men on suspicion of terrorism links after they were seen taking photos from a ferry, police sources said on Monday. They said the men, believed to come from Pakistan, had no legal travel documents in their possession. "The case is sensitive and the FBI are here to take over the interrogation of the suspects," one source told Reuters, adding that several FBI investigators had arrived in Mombasa on Monday. The five men were arrested on Saturday aboard a ferry off the eastern coastal city of Mombasa, the sources said. Kenya, hit in 1998 and 2002 by bombs blamed on Al Qaeda, is viewed as a "weak flank" for terrorism by Western security services, particularly along its coastline.
