International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Fatou Bensouda offered Tuesday to help prosecute those behind the deadly attack on Nairobi's Westgate shopping mall, a statement said.

Bensouda expressed "her deep sympathy to the victims of the appalling attack", which "may constitute a crime" under the ICC's founding Rome Statute, to which Kenya is a party.
