Police in Kenya’s coastal city of Mombasa have detained three suspects on terrorism grounds.
The three were arrested on Wednesday on suspicion of being members of a terrorist group with networks in Uganda, Kenya, Somalia and Egypt, the police said in court documents filed on Thursday.
The trio were arraigned in a Mombasa court on Thursday with anti-terror police seeking 15 days to complete their investigations.
The suspects were captured after hotel staff reported their suspicious activities to police.
