Is White Widow Samantha Lewthwaite dead? Woman terror suspect killed as troops storm Nairobi shopping centre


Investigators are trying to identify the body of a white woman found among the Islamic militants killed as troops stormed the complex.
And there were claims that it could be fugitive mum-of-three Samantha Lewthwaite, from Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire.
Experts believe she helped plan the bloodbath and may have been part of the masked gang that slaughtered 62 shoppers, including six Brits.
An intelligence source said: “Lewthwaite is the most wanted female terrorist in the world.
"She has managed to evade capture for two years but she may have finally been killed.”
The source added that Lewthwaite may have plotted the slaughter with the al-Shabaab terror group in revenge for the capture of her right hand man.
She had allegedly planned to bomb Kenyan beach resorts with London-born Jermaine Grant. Police swooped on the pair at their Mombasa home in December 2011 – but Lewthwaite escaped and has been on the run ever since.
Chemicals found in their rented apartment were identical to the ingredients Lewthwaite’s former husband Jermaine Lindsay used to kill 26 people and himself in the London 7/7 attacks.
Grant, 31, was today due to stand trial for the planned atrocities but prosecutors in Mombasa dramatically halted the hearing as it emerged Lewthwaite was a prime suspect in the Nairobi atrocity.
One senior security official said that despite the reports of her death, many believed Lewthwaite was still at large.
