A 24-year-old woman was on Thursday arrested after she was found carrying three hand grenades in a public service vehicle in Sololo area, Marsabit county. The woman identified as Galmo Galgalo was travelling in a matatu from Moyale to Marsabit town when police flagged the vehicle and after a search, they found her handbag with the explosives. The motive for her carrying the weapons is yet to be known but police say she is under interrogation. It is however not clear where they would have been used. Her handbag also had a mobile with videos indicating a militant group in a training session, which could mean she is an active member of a terror group.
