Court denies Garissa University terror attack suspects bail

A Nairobi Court has declined to grant bail to five suspects arrested over Garissa University college terror attack.

The five were charged with conspiring to commit a terrorist act that resulted to the death of at least 148 students.

Chief Magistrate Daniel Ogembo denied them bail saying that there was a likelihood for the accused persons to abscond once released and that the nature of the offence facing them carries a life sentence.

The five include,Mohamed  Ali Abikar, Hassan Edin Hassan, Sahal Dirive Hussein, Osman Abdi Dagar and Rashid Charles Mberesero.

The case will be heard on the 24thand 25th of August,  2015
