• Malala's son and brother-in-law were allegedly tortured to share details of Malala's whereabouts and that of his wife.

Former UDA Secretary General has revealed that his son and nephew were allegedly kidnapped and tortured for 6 hours.

He took to his socials announcing that the duo was tortured to share details of Malala's whereabouts and that of his wife.

Through his X account, Malala captioned

"My Son & my 19-year-old brother-in-law were abducted at gunpoint. Tortured for 6 hours to disclose my whereabouts or that of my wife and to show them the way to my residence. On failing to find us at home they dumped them on Thika road; I have picked them, safe but traumatized."

He also went ahead to share a video of the alleged kidnapping.

CCTV footage of the vehicle that drove into my residence with the two abductees at gun point; my son and 19 year old brother in-law shows that the CAR, a black Toyota Voxy, KCE 984D has a KDF Sticker on it.

Below are Kenyans reaction to the alleged abduction

@samsonokeyo: Now you are crying and some few days ago Kenyans were crying..you kept quiet ..otherwise you were celebrating.

@cathy_mutuku: Hapa sio dci headquarters, siulie vile Umezoea

@etyangeric55: Bana shillingi inakuanga na pande mbili. It's your turn now.

@Tina09cn: You tweeted about your missing son and brother-in-law on the 24th at 1.42 am. The CCTV footage shows they were taken on the 24th at 3.42 am by the black car. This begs the question did you tweet before or after they were abducted or is the 3.42 the time you viewed the footage.

@MartinMKivuva: This is a lesson that a government that harasses even one citizen is equally bad to everyone. With time it harasses everyone. When those cops were killing and abducting Gen Zs, you joked about it.

@Thunder_goddd: Have you tried to dialogue with the abductors? Or perhaps you need to give them time.

@ManasseOde35846: You were silent in 2023 when they were killing demonstrators, in 2024 Finance bill demonstration you were silent, after losing your SG is when you are crying, lia tuu sana.

@johnmark254: Kikulacho ki guoni lako you praised the devil now he's biting you.

@wangombe_steve: We have too much on our plates, so sorry we don't buy shenanigans from Kenyan politicians.

@Kavoo_Fredrick: Why didn't you call Ruto to talk to the abductors ?

@go_nich: Report to the police and also you can organise a meeting between the abductors and yourselves.

@PeterBaraza: Cleo, just the other day you were happy when the oppressor was doing this to other Kenyans because you were on that side. Siwezi kuhurumia Mimi.

@shakikokipz_bii: Unalia hapa ,buh when you were SG you couldn't even engage on twitter,you were unreachable. Sasa unaskiaje? Power is transient.
