A Kenyan court on Friday handed down jail sentences to two suspects for their involvement in the 2013 Westgate attack that killed at least 67 people.
Chief magistrate Francis Adayi sentenced Mohammed Ahmed Abdi to 33 years in jail while Hussein Hassan Mustafa was handed 18 years.
However, Abdi’s sentence was reduced to 26 years while Mustafa will serve 11 years in prison after the court deducted the seven years they have already served in remand.
On October 7, Andayi found Mohamed Abdi guilty of conspiracy to commit a terrorism act and being in possession of an article connected to terrorism.
Hussein Mustafa was found guilty of conspiracy to commit a terrorism act.
The Westgate attack left at least 67 people dead.
The two will appeal the verdict within the next 14 days if they are to alter the decision of the court.
