Leaders want four Mombasa mosques reopened

Conditions set for the reopening of four mosques shut by the State last week have set Mombasa leaders and the national government on a collision path.

The Government says Musa, Sakina, Swafaa and Minaa mosques, which police stormed on Monday and Wednesday last week, will only be reopened for public worship after the formation of committees that will manage them and appointment of imams.
