Two boxes of charred body parts found in Kenya's Westgate Mall may be those of the gunmen who killed more than 60 people in the shopping centre last month, officials believe.

Four AK-47 assault rifles were found alongside the remains which have been sent to the Nairobi city morgue.

A morgue official said the two boxes arrived on Thursday, and that a team of foreigners padlocked the boxes on Friday.

A security official said one of the four gunmen seen in security footage is a Norwegian-Somali whose last name is Dhuhulow and the first or middle name is Abdi. The official said four AK-47 rifles, 11 AK-47 magazines and one rocket propelled grenade were recovered at the mall on Thursday.
