The Kenyan military named four dead Westgate Mall attackers, including their al Qaeda-trained leader, Abu Baara al-Sudani. The three others are Omar Nabhan, a Kenyan Arab who had lived in Somalia; Khattab al-Kene, a Shabaab-linked Somali said to be "an associate of Ramzy from Mogadishu"; and a man identified only as Umayr. Kenyan authorities are said to be holding nine suspects and have said that five attackers were killed. Others may still be at large. Police searching for Shabaab militants raided a Somali-run hotel in Kitui town, but arrested no one. Police are said to be looking for a cleric, Sheikh Abubakar Shariff, a.k.a. Makaburi, suspected of supporting terrorism.
