Interior CS Fred Matiangi has moved to assure Kenyans that investigations into the Brutal terror attack at 14 Riverside are on course and they will unravel all the perpetrators of the heinous act.
The world came to a standstill on Tuesday afternoon after six gunmen forced their way into the building and opened fire against unarmed civilians, killing at least 21 in the process and injuring many more.
The tough speaking CS said on Monday that the government will ensure everyone involved in the attack is brought to book. He also said all security apparatus are doing all they can to avoid any attack in future.
Speaking in Mombasa on Monday after meeting security chiefs, Matiang’i said he has fully been briefed by the DCI on the progress in investigations.
“I want to assure all Kenyans that we are on the right course and we are soon going to unravel all the perpetrators,” he said.

“As a government we remain committed to the rule of law. We must ensure that everyone who was involved in the attack either directly of indirectly is brought to book.”
Matiang’i’s statement came hours after police spokesman Charles Owino said three more suspects in addition to the first five in custody had been arrested.
They are Ibrahim Ali Buyo (19) and Aden Hassan, arrested in Alinjugur, Fafi subcounty and Mohamed Abdirahman Abdalla (40) in Hagdera market.
