Kenya: Nairobi somali Population fears retaliation

In the neighborhood of "Little Mogadishu" in Nairobi, the fear of retaliation on the somali population, because of the attack on the Wastegate, is huge.

Somalis fear being the target of some kind of attack by Kenyans, although concern that, so far, didn't feel any pressure.

"Since this happened we didn't see cops harassing young people and we haven't seen anyone being bothered. People are living normally, but do not hide their fears. Night collect early, between 10 and 11 the streets are empty. It's not like before, there's tension and people are afraid of the police, "said a resident.

But Somalia's Ambassador to Kenya, Mohamed Ali Nur, the fears are unfounded because there is no question the somali people.

"This is not a somali issue, as some say media groups. It is a terrorist group that killed many Kenyans and people of other nationalities, including somalis ".

The last balance sheet of the victims is of more than 70 dead, 61 missing and about 240 injured.

The searches are continuing in the rubble of the building of the Mall. Kenyans meet the third national day of mourning, with collective religious ceremonies in memory of the victims.

Indifferent to the emotion of the whole country, Somali insurgents the shabab leave new threats in a twitter account.
