“The five attackers had a lot of ammunition and their commander was very well trained. He gave us a difficult time and when he hid in the armoured room, that slowed us down as well,” another officer said.
A Canadian citizen is among the five suspects detained for 30 days as a multi-agency team continues with its investigations. They are the first suspects to appear in connection with the DusitD2 attack but did not take pleas.
Four of the suspects are Kenyan citizens. The fifth is a Canadian-Somali. They were remanded for 30 days.
Yesterday some of officers who arrived at the scene within minutes of the first exposition told of how they were able to push the killers to a corner and how that decision saved many lives.
DCI George Kinoti was the first to arrive at the scene with 10 heavily armed and highly trained officers who are part of his rapid response team.
Despite a hail of bullets, Kinoti’s team drove their boss’s armed car right to the entrance of Dusit, forcing the attackers to run inside the hotel.
“Once we had them contained inside Dusit we then fought to ensure that they didn’t come out and enter any other building. Meanwhile, other civilians were helping evacuate people from the buildings,” said one officer.
