Human rights activist Boniface Mulinge Muteti was discovered injured and disoriented in the Lukenya area of Machakos County after reportedly being dumped there. He had walked a long distance to a petrol station, where a Good Samaritan assisted him. The incident occurred around 3:00 am, and Muteti remains in a critical condition.
The discovery of Muteti comes just a day after another activist, Collins Otieno, was found alive along Thika Road. Otieno had reportedly gone missing following a similar ordeal. Both activists were linked to human rights advocacy, though details of their specific activities remain unclear.
Authorities have not yet commented on the circumstances surrounding the dumping of the activists. Local reports suggest the incidents may be linked to ongoing tensions in the region, though no official confirmation has been provided. The cases highlight concerns about the safety of activists in the area.
Further investigations are underway to determine the full extent of the incidents and to ensure the safety of individuals involved in advocacy work.
