Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today wrote to Kenyan President Uhuru Kenyatta, condemning the terror attack in Nairobi in which two Indians were among those killed and said a concerted global effort is required to control such mindless violence.
He directed the External Affairs Ministry to extend all help to Indian nationals who were victims of the attack at a mall in the Kenyan capital.
Over 70 people are killed in what seems to be a Mumbai 2008 inspired attack, with the same modas operandi, where specifically foreigners and non-muslims were targetted. Number of European, Australian, Canadian and Americans are among those who are killed. A Kiwi man miraculously escaped the carnage. Japanese, South Koreans, Peruvian and Indians are also among killed. Over 175 injured, and hostages are still there in this ongoing attack.
