According to a report by UK Daily Mirror, Samantha Lewthwaite, the British woman known as the “White Widow” accused
of masterminding the Kenyan shopping mall
massacre that left 68 people dead and over 170 injured was in Nigeria sometime ago and evaded detection.
From Daily Mirror;
If White Widow Samantha Lewthwaite is on the run she will be hard to catch. If Lewthwaite were to be on the run in Kenya, Nigeria or Somalia, it would be a easier to evade detection than in Europe. She would be wearing a veil, and sensitivities about searching Muslim women would be observed so she could easily slip through difficult checkpoints.
In Nigeria, where police forces are notoriously corrupt, there were reports she was almost caught a while ago, but she bribed her way out of trouble. Extremist communities such as al-Shabaab are tight-knit in these countries, making it difficult to recruit agents to penetrate them and trace her.
And Lewthwaite may hold a great deal of power as a special kind of
jihadist, having proved her worth in previous attacks. As a white
convert mum and widow of a 7/7 bomber, she would be invaluable
propaganda and would command huge loyalty. Also, the austere nature of
her adopted culture means she would rarely
go out, so there would be few opportunities to follow her. Bounties
have failed to nail jihadists as money has no value to individuals loyal
to the cause.
