A Narok-based businessman has been jailed for a total of 80 years by a Nairobi court for seven counts of supporting terrorism.
The magistrate jailed Abdirizak Moktar Edow for 20 years for a charge of supporting terrorism activities.
He
given another 10 years for each of the other six counts that included
being a member of Al-Shabaab and being in possession of materials that
promote terrorism.
In another charge, the businessman
was accused of convening a meeting to advance terrorism activities at
the Masjid Musa Mosque in Mombasa in February 2014.
“The
court must support law enforcers who are fighting terrorism, which has
left hundreds of Kenyans dead, thousands injured and property worth
billions destroyed,” Senior Principal Magistrate Joyce Gandani said in
her judgment.
