At least five of the terrorists also died before Kenyan forces were
finally able to bring the siege to an end on Tuesday. The terrorists
stormed the building Saturday.To anyone shopping at Nairobi's Westgate Mall, it would likely have seemed just another store.
But according to a Kenyan intelligence official, the small shop concealed an ominous secret. It was rented by the Al-Shabaab terrorists, or their associates, who within a year would carry out an attack on the upscale shopping mall.
The information --
revealed Friday to CNN by the source, who is close to the investigation
into the attack -- suggests the Somalian terror organization had been
planning the operation at least that long.
How the team of
terrorists got their weapons and explosives into the mall without
notice is a central part of the investigation into the attack, which
left at least 67 people dead and parts of the upscale mall in ruins.
The Kenya Red Cross said
Friday that 61 people remain unaccounted for. Some could be buried in
the rubble of the partially collapsed mall.
