MOGADISHU, Somalia, November 7, 2015 (Garowe Online)-Somali security forces have handed over three suspects, of whom one disguised as woman to National Intelligence and Security Agency (NISA), Garowe Online reports.

The men suspected of being would-be suicide bombers were apprehended in front of Mogadishu’s Weheliye Hotel.

Security Agencies have been on high alert for another planned attack on hotels popular with government officials since last week, when militants killed nearly a dozen people in deadly siege.

Having lost large chunks of territories, Al Shabaab carries out unprecedented terror operations.
