A Somali national was on Wednesday, April 30, charged alongside a Kenyan man at the Makadara Law Courts with trafficking in persons.

According to a report by the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), the two were among several others who trafficked at least four people, including two minors aged 14 and 17.

They are accused of committing the offence between January 17 and 27 within Nairobi County.

Reportedly, the two, alongside their co-conspirators not in court, deceived the four victims, all Somali nationals, before transporting them from Nairobi to the Busia border.
