The tension over abduction cases has caused unrest in the country over the last three months.
And as Kenyans cope with these cases, the transport was paralysed for over seven hours at a highway along the Nyeri-Nyahururu road after residents from Kieni West protested a suspected abduction case.
Angry residents blocked the road with stones and thorns, protesting a case of a young man who went missing mysteriously earlier in the week.
The middle-aged man by the name of Simon Githinji is said to have gone missing on Wednesday after his motorcycle was recovered on Thursday at a local firm and his mobile found at a privately owned ranch, raising eyebrows among the residents.
