LAMU, Kenya |
Mon Sep 19, 2011 10:24am EDT
LAMU, Kenya (Reuters) - A man was charged in a Kenyan court on Monday following the murder of a British tourist and the abduction of his wife at a remote beach resort near the border with lawless Somalia, a local magistrate and police said.
Unidentified gunmen raided the Kiwayu Safari Village in the early hours of September 11, shooting dead publishing executive David Tebbutt, 58, and taking hostage his wife Judith, 56, before escaping by boat.
Kenyan Ali Babitu Kololo was charged with robbery with violence and kidnapping with intention to murder at a magistrate's court in the northern coastal town of Lamu. Robbery with violence is a capital offence in Kenya.
"He pleaded not guilty and the case will be .... heard on October 25," Lamu Senior Resident Magistrate Rwito Kithinji told Reuters, adding that Kololo was also due in court October 4 for a preliminary hearing.
Somali pirates said on Sunday they were holding the kidnapped tourist.
Kidnapping has chiefly been carried out by Somali pirates in the Gulf of Aden and Indian Ocean but Somali gunmen have attacked Westerners just across the border with Kenya on several occasions.
Kenyan police believe Kololo may have been in working with the attackers at Kiwayu, a luxury 18-cottage resort in a marine reserve that has a chain of islands and coral reefs.
"More charges may be preferred depending on the investigation's outcome. The suspect, we believe, was very much aware of the attack, may have harbored the bandits, knowing very well what they had intended to do," said a senior police source in Lamu.
