The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has arrested three Pakistani nationals suspected of kidnapping and holding hostage two Indians shortly after they arrived at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA).

According to the DCI, the two, Sandeep Sandeep and Ishwar Singh, arrived at JKIA on August 10, 2026 and were cleared through Immigration at about 2:50 pm. Shortly after, they were allegedly kidnapped while leaving the airport.

“Investigations established that shortly after being cleared, the two walked out of the airport and were received by two men. The four then boarded a white Nissan Note and drove away,” the DCI said in a statement.
