However, investigations are underway to conclusively establish those responsible for this mayhem, so that we can have full accountability. They shall not get away with their despicable, beastly acts. Like the cowardly perpetrators now cornered in the building, we will punish the masterminds swiftly and painfully.”By press time, the Kenyan security agents and troops had surrounded the Westgate mall and police and soldiers combed the building, hunting the attackers shop by shop.  Al Shabaab, is battling Kenyan and other African peacekeepers in Somalia and had repeatedly threatened attacks on Kenyan soil if Nairobi did not pull its troops out of the Horn of Africa country.And President Kenyatta vowed that Kenyan troops will continue to fight the terrorists.
