Human rights groups in Kenya say abductions and enforced disappearances remain a serious concern despite President William Ruto’s 2024 pledge to end them. Families are still searching for loved ones who vanished during protests against the finance bill and later demonstrations.

Activist Davis Lichuma was reported missing before being found injured in hospital, while Dennis Chege has been missing since the 2024 protests. Rights organizations have accused police of failing to prevent abuses, but authorities have denied any involvement and rejected allegations of enforced disappearances.
