Three men - Rashid Charles Mberesero, Mohamed Ali Abikar,
Hassan Edin Hassan - have been found guilty of conspiracy to commit the 2015
attack on Garissa University in which 148 people were killed.
They were also found guilty of belonging to the al-Shabab
Islamist militant group, and will be sentenced on 3 July.
A fourth man was acquitted of both charges.
The trial had been beset by changes of magistrates and
witnesses not showing up in court; a situation typical of the Kenyan justice
system.
The ruling today is hugely significant. This was after all
the deadliest attack on Kenyan soil since the 1998 US bombings.
