The family of an Ethiopian businessman allegedly abducted in Nairobi is seeking the government’s intervention to help find their kin.
Samson Teklemichael was taken by people believed to be police officers in broad daylight. The incident was captured on camera by passersby.
In one of the clips, a traffic cop is seen holding the driver’s door of Teklemichael’s car as two men drag him out of the car before leading to an awaiting Subaru.

The victim is heard yelling at the crowd to record his abduction.
According to his wife, Milen Mezgebo, Teklemichael called her telling her that he had been taken hostage. The phone has been switched off since then, she told reporters.
“He called me and told me he had been abducted by persons he doesnt know and the phone was disconnected and it has been off since then,” she told reporters.
