A family in Nandi county is living in fear after their son, who disappeared eight years ago, publicly supported al Shabaab on the dusitD2 complex attack. Al Shabaab, a Somalia-based Islamist group, attacked dusitD2 hotel complex in Nairobi on January 15, killing 21 and injuring 28. He questioned why Kenyan forces were killing Somalis and neutralising al Shabaab militants. Kipkoech, according to his Facebook posts, has converted from his Christian “Jehovah Witness” faith to Islam and changed his name. Any visitor trying to locate the homestead can only ask to be shown the “family of al Shaabab suspect”.
