Westgate terror suspects' judgement postponed, again

The judgement on three Westgate terror suspects was adjourned, again, on Tuesday, due to time constraints.

Chief Magistrate Francis Andayi said the judgement will be delivered on Wednesday at 8 am..

Earlier, there was tight security at the Milimani law courts ahead of the expected judgement.

ATPU officers were seen with their face masks on and guns on hold as they roamed around and kept watch around the vicinity.

The Westgate terror suspects had complained of 'harsh' prison conditions as they awaited sentencing over the attack that left 67 dead in 2013.

In the case, Mohammed Ahmed, Liban Abdullahi and Hussein Mustafa were charged with giving support to a terrorist group.

Mohammed told the court that he needed blankets because it was very cold in prison while Abdullahi complained of the bad diet asking the court to intervene.

He claimed that the porridge he was given did not have sugar.

"Kwa sasa nakunya uji na mkate na maziwa kidogo,niko na shida na maharagwe na skuma," he added.

The third accused also complained that he coulc not see well.
