Kenya to Deport Five Somalis for Terror Links
2004-04-11
Kenyan authorities will next week deport five Somali nationals for alleged links to the Al-Qaeda terrorist network. The five are among at least 14 people arrested last month at Eastleigh, a crime-prone residential district in Nairobi, on suspicion of involvement in various terrorism-related activities in the east African nation. “Kenyan security agents have obtained a deportation order allowing them to repatriate the foreigners. Armed security agents will escort them to the Kenya-Somali border on Tuesday,” the Daily Nation said. The paper said, quoting a source in the office of the president, that one of the detainees is “suspected to have links with terrorist cells operating from Somalia.”
Haven't thought about giving them about 50 years in jug, have you? Or maybe shooting them?... I thought not.
A senior police officer said that military and intelligence officers “were this week trying to obtain orders to repatriate some Somalis who were arrested in an anti-terrorism swoop last month, because Kenya does not have anti-terrorism laws that would enable prosecutors to directly charge suspects with extremist activities.”
Perhaps you should pass some?

#2  "Repatriate" them with extreme prejudice.

Bushnell offered the trial's most dramatic testimony, a detailed account of the Friday morning bombing two and a half years ago that killed 213 people, including 12 Americans who worked in the embassy, and injured more than 4,000 others.

Let's see, 213 dead and some 4,000 others injured almost six years ago. Is there any need for Kenyan "anti-terrorism" laws yet?
