Ugandan journalist and human rights lawyer Agather Atuhaire, who had been detained in Tanzania alongside Kenya's Boniface Mwangi, has been found and is safe.
The activist had been missing for days after her abduction in Tanzania earlier this week.
She had been abandoned at the Mutukula border between Uganda and Tanzania, where she was found. Mwangi was deported by road by Tanzanian authorities on Thursday before he was found dumped in Ukunda, Kilifi County.
In a media address, Mwangi said he had been tortured alongside Agather even as he called for her release.
