Suspected Child Trafficker Arrested in Kajiado as Four Minors Rescued

Government-aligned outlets report that Enock Peterson Mwangi, alias Mwamburi, was arrested in Kajiado County by a joint operation of the Kenya Police Service, Administration Police Service and Directorate of Criminal Investigations. The same report states that four minors were rescued from the suspect’s operation at Korompoi Trading Centre in Isinya Sub-County. Details about Mwangi’s broader trafficking network, the minors’ current whereabouts, and any potential accomplices remain unclear. Opposition or civil society outlets have not yet released statements on the case, leaving questions about the effectiveness of Kenya’s anti-trafficking strategy unanswered.
