 Two Al-Shabaab terrorists were blown up in pieces when a bomb they were setting up exploded on them in the Amuma area of Garissa county.

Police said border patrol officers from a nearby police camp visited the scene along Amuma-Ruqa Road and confirmed the early Tuesday morning October 3, 2023, incident.

Police added that multiple militants were involved in the botched operation and that several others escaped with life-threatening injuries when the Improvised Explosive Device (IED) they were planting exploded on them.

"A group of Al-Shabaab militants that was planting an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) along a road in Garissa County, was served a taste of their own medicine when the IED exploded killing two of them on the spot, as others scattered from the scene with life-threatening injuries," the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said in a statement on Tuesday night.

"Karma came back on the militants who were targeting innocent civilians and police officers using the road, when the explosive went off delivering instant justice to the Shabaab," the statement continued.

Security teams that responded to the scene found the badly mutilated bodies of the Al-Shabaab terrorists sprawled all over there.

Also found at the scene was a battery and some wires believed to have been part of the explosive," police said. By Martin Oduor, K24 Digital
