Mombasa, Kenya: Two terror suspects arrested after the Likoni church attack have been denied bail.

Principal magistrate Justus Kituku said Juma Hamisi and Misaid Athman might interfere with the current investigation where several DVDs and VCDs are being analysed.

The magistrate said the two face serious offences and their release could pose a threat to the country, especially due to the current insecurity.

The suspects bail application was also dismissed by the state prosecutor Ngina Mutua who said the two were facing serious charges and could interfere with the witnesses by issuing threats or using other means.

Kituku ordered the suspects to be taken back to Shimo la Tewa Prison and fixed the hearing of the case for April 28th.
