Police arrest 64 aliens suspected of human trafficking in Kajiado

Police arrested 64 people of Ethiopian origin in Kitengela on Tuesday, July 24, suspected of being en route to South Africa.

The arrests took place at Muigai Estate following a tip-off.

This latest operation brings the total number of aliens detained in the area over the past week to 96, heightening concerns about a growing human trafficking network.

According to police, many Ethiopians use the Moyale route to travel to South Africa or the Middle East, often unaware of the risks involved.

 The individuals typically enter Kenya seeking employment or while in transit.
