As usual Michael, you are right! I did a traceroute (connected on Onecom/Safaricom)
As you can see it hops into London and gets onto AS6453 in London which belongs to Tata.
Am in San Francisco (Stanford) at the moment and I did a traceroute back to Kenya (Safarciom) and the loop back also goes through AS6453, which Brian says belongs to Tata.
