Kenya abductions spark huge public backlash | BBC News

The reported disappearance of more than 80 government critics over the last six months has caused a huge public backlash in Kenya.

A judge has warned he will imprison top security officials for contempt of court on Monday if they fail to appear for a third time to account for a recent string of alleged abductions.

The case is linked to the disappearances documented by Kenya’s National Commission on Human Rights since nationwide protests against proposed tax hikes began last June.

At least 24 are said to still be missing.
