Azimio la Umoja-One Kenya coalition has also called for an end to the abductions and demanded the release of many other Kenyans who are still missing.
Sifuna on abductions
Nairobi Senator Edwin Sifuna who had accompanied former Nandi Hills Member of Parliament Alfred Keter to Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) headquarters on Monday, July 1, 2024, said that they had raised abduction concerns to DCI.
Sifuna said the DCI had denied any involvement in the abductions of the missing Kenyans.
He regretted the incident that happened to Keter, noting that he would never wish it on anyone.
He further condemned President William Ruto for what he termed as maintaining the hit squad that consists of men who are even unknown to the police.
“We have made two requests as the leadership of Azimio led by Kalonzo Musyoka. We are aware that there are many Kenyans still missing. We have asked the DCI and they are claiming that it isn’t them who took these people. Ruto is still maintaining police hit squads and they are the ones conducting the abductions. We will not be treated like criminals,” Sifuna said.
Keter’s abduction
Keter was on Sunday, June 30, 2024, forcibly abducted by heavily armed men in plainclothes outside Holy Trinity Catholic Church in Kileleshwa as he was leaving the church.
He was taken to Kamkunji police station where he was grilled before being released.
