The Kenya Tourist Federation (KTF) continues to assess security around the Kiwayu Safari Village near the Kenya -Somali border where British citizen David Tebutt was killed and his wife kidnapped last Sunday.
The Kiwayu Safari Lodge remains temporarily closed and its re-opening is highly dependent on the outcome of the security assessment.
The private sector will also spearhead an internal security audit aimed at identifying any other locations in the area that may require enhanced security.
The KTF said that camps and lodges within the tourist circuits have stringent security measures to ensure the safety of their guests.
The tourism industry will cancel tours within 30kms of the Kenyan-Somali border for fear of further attacks by Somali gunmen.
Kenyan police have arrested one suspect – a local who is believed to have alerted the Somalis to the presence of the British couple at the remote resort – but are still searching for Mrs Tebutt.
