In Kisauni Sub-County, detectives have apprehended a key suspect associated with the abduction of two children and successfully rescued the youngsters reported missing since August 27, 2026. The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) revealed that Caleb Okumu Ngwena, aided by an accomplice still at large, snatched the minors on August 25 in Sensera, Kiembeni.
According to the DCI, the suspects coerced the children into silencing communication with their families before relocating them to Kiambu County, where they were held captive in an empty room. The primary suspect is also accused of sexually assaulting one of the minors. The children were eventually released after days of captivity and were threatened with death if they disclosed the events.
Ngwena is set to be formally charged in court on September 7, where he faces allegations of defilement, kidnapping, and child trafficking. Ongoing investigations aim to uncover the complete details of the incident as detectives continue to track down the second suspect.
