Hamdun, who is alleged to have been involved in the DusitD2 attack that left 21 people dead, was arrested on Sunday at King'orani area in an undercover operation undertaken by a multi-agency team.
He was arraigned before Mombasa Chief Magistrate Edna Nyaloti on Monday where police sought to detain him for 20 days to complete investigations.
The suspects have not yet been identified and their killing comes just a day after a terror suspect linked to DusitD2 attack was arrested.
