'Come to your senses,' Pope tells terrorists behind Garissa attack

Pope Francis delivers his blessing during his weekly general audience in St Peter's Square in the Vatican on Wednesday.

Pope Francis Thursday appealed to Somali Islamist militants who killed 148 people at Garissa University College two weeks ago to stop their brutality and “come to their senses”.

He told Kenyan bishops visiting the Vatican that he prayed for those killed by acts of terror, ethnic and tribal hostilities in Kenya and elsewhere in Africa.
