Police in Eldama Ravine are investigating a suspected case of human trafficking syndicate after seizing a vehicle ferrying 20 women under unclear circumstances.
According to the Police sources, the women who looked starved and had to be fed first were found without any valid identification documents with them.
The women were taken for interrogation after a Toyota Hiace vehicle they were travelling in was flagged for speeding at the Makutano junction along the Nakuru-Eldoret highway by the traffic officers.
The driver of the vehicle, however, fled from the scene, leading the officers to interrogate the women and book the incident at the Makutano Police Station before transferring the women to the Koibatek Sub-County Police Station in Eldama Ravine Town.
