Israel deplores acquittal of suspects in Al-Qaeda-linked Kenya hotel bombing
NAIROBI (AFP) - Israel has deplored a Kenyan court decision to acquit four
Muslim men accused of murder in the 2002 Al-Qaeda-linked bombing of an
Israeli-owned hotel.
Omar Said Omar, a suspect in the 2002 Al-Qaeda-linked bombing of an Israeli-owned hotel near the southern city of Mombasa, pumps his fist after a Kenyan judge dismissed murder charges against four Kenyan men accused of the bombing
Nairobi high court justice John Osiemo on Thursday said prosecutors had not proven the four were involved in the November 28, 2002 bombing of the Mombasa Paradise Hotel in which 18 people, including three Israeli tourists, 12 Kenyans and three suicide car bombers, were killed.
Police immediately re-arrested one suspect whom the United States has expressed interest in questioning.
