Nairobi: Men dressed as women were among the attackers who massacred shoppers at a mall in Kenya, it has been claimed.






A government minister said that the terrorists who attacked the shopping complex in Nairobi were all men, but added that some were dressed as women.

Earlier, a white woman wearing a veil was reportedly spotted shouting orders to gunmen in Arabic during the attack on the Westgate complex in the Kenyan capital.

Some reports linked Samantha Lewthwaite, the English widow of 7/7 bomber Jermaine Lindsay, and the attack.

She is wanted by Kenyan police over links to a suspected terrorist cell.

However the Foreign Office later said it was not linking the two.

Security sources say the group of attackers are from several different countries.
