Kenyan authorities have arrested two police officers who were found trafficking 13 people from Ethiopia using a police vehicle.
According to local media, the officers were transporting eight Ethiopians, four Eritreans and a Sudanese national in a vehicle belonging to Kenya’s Border Police Unit.
The officers, who were armed with police-issued firearms, were intercepted in Kenya’s north-western county of Turkana, which borders Ethiopia.
Authorities say that they also detained the foreigners, who will likely be arraigned in a Kenyan court or repatriated to their countries.
The foreigners said that they were transiting through Kenya on their way to South Africa.
