That is why we have instructed our officers to bring him to the district police headquarters for further questioning,&#8221; Mr Sigei told the Nation in his office Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>But police said although they would prefer a charge of being illegally in the country, they would also quiz the man further to establish his connection with any extremist group in Somalia.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We have officers from the Anti-Terrorism Police Unit, Criminal Investigation Department and National Social Intelligence Services who will carry out thorough investigations,&#8221; said Mr Sigei.<\/p>\n<p>Police sources said interrogating the man will be a tall order because he does not speak either English or Kiswahili. They will require a Somali interpreter to help with the interrogation. The incident comes at a time when security on the Kenya-Somalia border has been beefed up following increasing threats by al-Shabaab militants to attack Kenya.<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks ago, senior police officers from North Eastern, Coast and Rift Valley provinces met in Garissa to review border security measures and resolved to beef up security on the Kenya-Somali border.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Original post:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201104211439.html\" title=\"Police to Quiz Somali Over Terror Link Claim\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Police to Quiz Somali Over Terror Link Claim<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Galgalo Bocha 21 April 2011 Nairobi \u2014 Police in Lamu are holding a man from Somalia over his suspected links with terror groups in his country. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-387220","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-business"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.0 -
