KENYA PROTEST: 'I THOUGHT IT WAS MY LAST DAY ON THIS EARTH' – TRAUMATISED MAN
It was terrifying  – abductee

The Kenyan parliament was ablaze; protesters running through the streets, police firing into the crowds. Among them was John, who believed the unrest could bring about meaningful political change. Days later, he was seized by two men in the city's Kibera slum and bundled into an unmarked Subaru car. They pulled a sack over his head and drove him to a forest. Their guns and handcuffs left him in no doubt that they were police. "It was terrifying," the 32-year-old said. "I thought that this is my last day on this earth."
