     A Somali Woman who was a college classmate with my younger son (Now a U.S. citizen after the transit through refugee camps in Kenya) was chased in attempted rape/robbery by Al-Shabaab when she returned to Kenya for her Masters Program in International Affairs. 2013.

     Luckily she was quite fast sprinting across a Soccer field & then hiding in the Refugee Camp.

     She exposed the routine bus robbery/rapes & the nonexistant medical care that people walked hours to wait for Aspirin if lucky.
