Abductions

Four Kenyan men who had been missing for over two weeks have been released, following widespread public outrage over their mysterious disappearances. The men, identified as Billy Mwangi, Peter Muteti, and two others, were reportedly found alive and reunited with their families. Their release comes after intense pressure from human rights organizations and growing concerns about the safety of government critics and activists in the country.

President William Ruto has vowed to end the abduction of Kenyan citizens, pledging that his administration will uphold the rule of law and ensure the protection of all citizens. The President’s commitment comes amid rising accusations against security agencies for their alleged involvement in enforced disappearances, a trend that has alarmed local and international observers.

Human rights groups have documented numerous cases of missing individuals in Kenya, many of whom are perceived to have political or activist ties. Families of the victims have consistently called for justice and accountability, while public outrage has fueled demands for reforms within the country’s security apparatus.

Although the release of the four men has brought relief to their families, 25 others reportedly remain missing under unclear circumstances. Advocacy groups continue to urge the government to conduct thorough investigations into these cases and ensure that those responsible for such acts are held accountable.
