Today, we attended a Habeas Corpus application seeking the production of Advocate Abshir Abdi, who was abducted nine days ago.
The court has directed that the matter proceeds for hearing tomorrow at 2:00 PM, when the applicant will present a witness.
The Government must put an phold the rule of law. Every Kenyan has the right to due process. Anyone arrested must be informed of the reasons for their arrest and promptly presented before a court of law.
No one is above the law, including those entrusted with enforcing it.

We are currently in court as a frustrated and disgruntled lot , and we @LawSocietyofKe stand firmly with our colleague, Wakili Abshir.
For many people, an advocate is their last hope of being heard. When advocates are targeted for the briefs they accept, it threatens the right legal representation and have their day in court.
We demand that the authorities account for Wakili Abshir’s whereabouts and secure his safe return. We will not relent in demanding an end to abductions and enforced disappearances in this country.
The Constitution is the supreme law of Kenya. The rule of law and due process bind every public authority. Every advocate must be free to accept a brief and represent a client without fear of intimidation or retaliation.
It is the duty of the court to safeguarding the safety, life and liberty of the citizens .

This year has to go on record that even advocates are not safe. The number of threats/intimidation to colleagues has been overwhelming! Last time I was threatened was after I won the Ruto Jet Cases! Before that, I had to stay with family in the US for almost 2 months.

It's alleged Advocate Abshir wasn't abducted alone.
A family from Mombasa is demanding the release of their kin, who was allegedly abducted together with Advocate Abshir Ahmed. Ayub Mohamad Malim was in the car with ring the abduction. CCTV footage shows Ayub running and being pursued by Abshir’s abductors, which was the last time he was seen.
The 27-year-old man was in Nairobi to visit his family.

Simplified for the Neanderthals. I would describe this case as the “Proverbial saying, “caught with their hand in the cookie jar!”
There are only 2 options, both terrifying for wananchi:
- NIS/DCI abducted a lawyer and refuses to release him.
- NIS/DCI is unable to catch a group of highly equipped thieves abducting a lawyer in the middle of Kilimani, 5 days on. And we can be concerned for security in Nairobi

An Advocate, Abshir Ahmedsadak Abdi was abducted on 1/11/26 along Muchai Drive. His motor vehicle was recovered on the same road. The incident was at Kilimani Police Station - 55/1/11/2026 .
Reports from people who witnessed the incident, indicate he was pursued by 2 motor d a double cab. The occupants of those vehicles had guns and 2 were in what seemed like police uniform and bullet proof vests.
The abduction is linked to a case he’s involved in against some senior police officers & he’s been subjected to various intimidation tactics prior to this incident.
An attack against an Advocate is an attack on the administration of justice and due process of law. The involvement of police in extra judicial abductions continue to prevail despite repeated assurances that they will end. The police cannot behave as if the life of a Kenyan doesn’t matter. They are not above the law.
@IG_NPS @kipmurkomen @ray_omollo intervene and urgently release our colleague from your agents.

Let them pay KES 1 BILLION to our athletes in back pay before hosting this match.
Human rights activists and citizens in Kenya have launched a campaign, urging FC Bayern and Ajax to boycott the scheduled friendly between the two teams in Nairobi on January 5th. Critics argue that public funds and millions are being misallocated toward an expensive n match amid domestic economic pressures, the rising cost of living, healthcare challenges and human rights issues. They also claim that this match serves as a political leverage and campaign tool ahead of upcoming elections amid ongoing public discontent over governance, taxation, and human rights in the country 🇰🇪

Here’s me in your glorious leader’s @DCI_Kenya HQ toilet. He doesn’t even give his highest police officers’ money to buy toilet paper.
But billions are being spent…where, how?
No wonder they accept bribes to stall my case or are incapacitated:

Of course the president shouldn’t drink. He should only kill, loot, abduct, impoverish, champion tribal bigotry, and gaslight.
But drinking, that’s where the damned line is!

Let me share one thing about EW’. So at the height of protests, she was the equivalent of @FaithOdhiambo8 but in MSA. So, @husskhalid & Co had been arrested for protesting against abductions & we couldn’t trace them in Mombasa. She just stepped in & delivered. We honor you EW 🕊️
