Eastleigh nairobi kenya little mogadishu

Residents walk through Eastleigh, a neighborhood of Nairobi known for its Somali population, walk on January 18, 2010. Kenyan police detained 300 illegal Somali immigrants during a sweep that followed a deadly protest at Nairobi's main mosque. The raid on Eastleigh neighbourhood was carried out by the elite General Service Unit and the anti-terrorism police unit following allegations by the government that Somalia's hardline Al Shabaab group infiltrated the demonstration.
