A man, his wife and son have been accused of harbouring Fazul Mohammed, a suspected terrorist in Malindi.
Mahfudhi Ashur, his wife Luftiya Abubakar and son Ibrahim Mahfudhi denied the charges before Mombasa principal magistrate Francis Kyambia.
The three, represented by lawyer Jared Magolo, allegedly harboured Fazul, alias Abdalla Abdul, in December 2007.
Fazul was suspected of being behind the Kikambala paradise hotel bombing on November 28, 2002. A vehicle crashed through a barrier outside the hotel and blew up, killing 15 and injuring 80.
Out of those killed, 10 were Kenyans and three were Israelis, two of them children.
Nine of the victims were dancers employed to welcome hotel guests. Four Israeli military planes were sent to Mombasa to evacuate the dead and injured.
Fazul was killed in 2011 in Somalia, where he had sort refuge after evading arrest at a house in Malindi, where Ashur and his family were arrested.
He was also wanted over the 1998 bomb attacks on the American embassies in Nairobi and Dar es Salaam, where 206 Kenyans died in the Nairobi attack.
