My Son and 19-year-old brother-in-law abducted at gunpoint; Malalah claims
Former United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party Secretary General Cleophas Malalah has claimed that his son and brother-in-law were abducted at gunpoint on Monday, September 23, before being released.
In a statement on Tuesday, September 24, Malala asserted that the two were tortured for six hours by unknown individuals who sought to know the former lawmaker’s whereabouts.
He further alleged that the kidnappers forced the duo to show them the way to his residence before dumping them along Thika Road.
“My son and 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 traumatised,” Malalah remarked.
However, the former Kakamega senator did not reveal why the kidnappers of his family members were inquiring about his whereabouts.

Malalah had been at odds with the ruling UDA party before being removed from his position and replaced by Hassan Omar.
He has also been vocal and opposed to a speculated impeachment motion against Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua.
Speaking during a church service in Thika, Kiambu County, on Sunday, September 22, Malalah alleged that two MPs were behind the impeachment.
“I have been informed that they have chosen Junet Mohamed and Peter Kaluma to front the impeachment motion. But I want to assure you (President William Ruto) that those people will remove you in 2027,” Malalah remarked.
