Sossion Calls into Question Police Insights on Kidnapping Cases.

Former Nominated Member of Parliament Wilson Sossion has expressed concern over Kenya’s inability to curb ongoing abductions, attributing the situation to silence and inaction from national security agencies.

Sossion criticized the national police for their perceived lack of urgency, stating that their inaction has eroded public trust in the safety of citizens, leading to an increase in abduction cases.

“How can abductions be stopped if the police are lagging behind in investigations and citizen protection? Everyone deserves to feel secure,” Sossion remarked during an interview on Citizen TV’s Daybreak show. He further alleged potential police involvement, suggesting that the lack of action on critical matters raises serious questions about their complicity.

“What do the police know about these crimes? Are they involved? Are they sabotaging efforts? Something is amiss,” he asserted.

Sossion lamented that Kenya has regressed in protecting human rights and safeguarding lives. He also questioned why Collins Jumaisi Khalusha, the prime suspect in the 2024 Kware massacre where 42 women were killed, remains at large following his escape from Gigiri Police Station on August 20, 2024.

“He vanished from police custody, and we treated it as if it were normal,” Sossion added.

The remarks come as public outcry grows over the government’s handling of abductions, with calls mounting for President William Ruto to take decisive action to secure the release of abducted citizens.

President Ruto has distanced himself from the matter, directing the Inspector General of Police and the National Police Service (NPS) to provide a detailed report on the recent abductions.

Amid this unrest, four youths abducted in December 2024 were released on Monday morning.

The families of Billy Mwangi, Peter Muteti, Bernard Kavuli, and Rony Kiplangat confirmed that their relatives had contacted them after being found.

Citizen Digital reports that Rony was located in Machakos County, while Bernard Kavuli, abducted in Ngong, was found in Kitale. Peter Muteti, discovered in Nairobi’s CBD, is reportedly disoriented and recovering at home.
