On this day four years ago at 3:00pm, five heavily armed terrorists attacked the Dusit D2 complex along riverside in Nairobi. A siege that lasted almost 17 hours left in its wake, 21 people dead among them a GSU officer and many others survived with injuries. In our special report on the fourth anniversary of the deadly attack our reporter Gatete Njoroge spoke to survivors of the attack including the mother of the late Ali Salim Gichunge, the man believed to have been the mastermind of the attack.
