Former Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua yesterday revisited the abduction of the youth, calling on President William Ruto to honour his word and release the abductees.

He said many of the families are traumatised by the abduction of their children by a police unit.

Gachagua spoke at Gakoigo Grounds in Maragua, during the funeral service of four children who perished after the house they were sleeping in caught fire. "I am repeating again that the abduction is coordinated by a unit outside the police," he said.

He warned Police Inspector General (IG) of Police Douglas Kanja not to be misled like his predecessor Japheth Koome, who was advised to resign.
