2 missing Indians killed in East African country Kenya

NEW DELHI: The report on two Indians missing in Kenya for more than 90 days, and their subsequent "killing", as claimed by the Kenyan President's aide last week, has raised questions on the safety of Indians living in and travelling to the East African nation. Mohammad Zaid Sami Kidwai and Zulfiqar Ahmed Khan, who went to Kenya in April to help with President William Ruto's social media campaign, were killed by the DCI (Directorate of Criminal Investigations) unit, Ruto's aide Dennis Itumbi said in a Facebook post.

The now-disbanded Special Service Unit was alleged to have been behind several cases of extrajudicial killings and enforced disappearances of both citizens and foreign nationals. India has described as "very disturbing" the events surrounding the abduction of its nationals in Kenya and the subsequent lack of information in the case.

"I've spent one year and seven months in Nairobi and from that, I can say Nairobi is pretty much safe for Indians. However, always have a local Kenyan person to accompany you and keep your car windows shut," Atul Jha, who lived in Nairobi from 2016 to 2018, said. (IANS)
