Chotara hails from Kenya, Mombasa County and had traveled to Turkey for further studies. He was however deported in 2017 and upon coming back to Kenya, he was arrested for radicalizing youths to join terrorist groups. He was released on Sh1.5 million bail.
In 2020, he fled the country with the Kenyan authorities having him on the most wanted list.
For instance, in November last year, Chotara was among five wanted terrorists who had a Sh50 million bounty on their heads.
Through Twitter, the DCI said a Sh50 million reward would be handed over to whoever had information that will lead to their arrests. The five were dubbed as armed and dangerous.
