Seven Somali refugees were on Wednesday arrested over claims of human trafficking and hosting Al-Shabaab terrorists at the Camp.
The suspects are said to be facilitating the movement of refugees to Nairobi to obtain illegal documents.
"They have been facilitating refugees to move to Nairobi for documents to enable them move to Europe and Canada. The suspects have also been hosting terrorists at the camp," said North Eastern regional coordinator Mohamed Saleh said.
Those arrested were identified as Bertie Mohamed Khalif, Ahmed Abdi Mohamud, Omar Mohamed Khalif, Bare Hussein Mahat, Shamsudin Dubow, Nasra Abdi Noor and Anab Mohamed Muhamed. Police presented the suspects in a court in Garissa and were granted ten days to continue holding them as investigations go on before they take plea.
