Three suspects accused of involvement in a transnational human
trafficking and extortion syndicate have pleaded not guilty before the Kahawa
Law Courts.
Abdirahman Dagane Ahmed, Abdisamed Abukar Abdullahi and
Abdifatah Abdi Elmi are facing charges linked to an alleged cross-border
operation involving the abduction and trafficking of a minor for ransom.
According to court documents, the suspects allegedly abducted
a 16-year-old boy from Nairobi’s Eastleigh estate on April 10, 2025, before
smuggling him through Sudan and South Sudan to war-torn Libya.
