Kenya probes 'mall Briton' report



Forensic experts are working to establish whether a British woman was among the Islamist militants who stormed a Kenyan shopping centre leaving more than 70 dead.


Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta said the al Qaida-linked terrorists who overran the Westgate centre in Nairobi on Saturday have now been “defeated” – with five militants killed and 11 others in custody.


He confirmed also that intelligence reports had been received suggesting that a British woman and “two or three” American nationals had been involved in the attack.


“We cannot confirm the details at present but forensic experts are working to ascertain the nationalities of the terrorists,” he said in a televised address.
