A multi-agency security team has arrested a wanted terror suspect, Mustakima Mohammed Ali, who was involved in the brutal killings of a police officer and two chiefs in Lamu County, Kenya.

The police officer and two chiefs were brutally murdered in December 2019.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigation (DCI) boss, Mohammed Amin confirmed the arrest in a statement on Sunday, April 28, 2024.

“The suspect was flushed out of a Malindi-bound bus in a Sunday afternoon operation by Anti-Terrorism Police augmented by their Special Operations Group (SOG) counterparts at the Sambaki Bridge road block while travelling from Lamu,” the statement read.

“Mustakima Ali alias Abu Mahir and his accomplices holed up after the monstrous murders that occurred in December 2019, first hiding within Boni Forest from where they were smoked out by security personnel and disappeared to a neighbouring country.

“In April 2023, three members of his gang dared a return into the country but were intercepted and arrested along the Isiolo-Moyale highway while heading to Somalia.

“They were charged at the Kahawa Law Courts and their case is ongoing. Other suspects who have since been identified but are still at large remain on police radar.”
