NAIROBI – The Kahawa Tribunal denied the bond between the three individuals facing terrorist-related accusations.
Principal Gideon Kiage ruled in favour of the prosecutor, led by Duncan Ondimu, and found that there was compelling reason to limit the rights of the defendant due to the seriousness of the case.
“This is a serious issue that the defense does not deny. Given the nature of the attack and the seriousness of the accusation, the court will find that the prosecution’s concerns are valid and based on precedents related to this case,” Hong ruled. Kiage.
The court was informed that the suspect was involved in an attack on a Kenyan security guard after arresting one of the accused, Isaq Cabdi Xasan alias Issack Mohammed.
During the attack, one police officer lost his life, another was seriously injured, and two firearms were taken. Somali citizens Isaac Kabudi Zasan and Kenyan nationals Noor Yakub Ali and Yusuf Maalim have been accused of conspiring to commit terrorist acts in Mandela’s town before February 18, 2025.
They are also accused of being a member of the rude terrorist group Al Shabaab.
After the suspect was taken two weeks ago, Kiage postponed the bail and bond decision for 30 days, allowing the prosecutor to finalize the disclosure and secure evidence they are trying to rely on.
