Justice Chacha Mwita will hear a matter in which he ordered the Attorney General and the Director of Public Prosecutions to produce Nairobi City County Johnsons Sakaja's key liaison person Osman Khalif Abdi in court.

This follows his alleged abduction on November 10.

Justice Mwita said the two should produce the former Southy C MCA Osman in Milimani or any other court on November 17.

If not, they should "show cause why the said Osman should not be released.

The orders followed after his wife Yasmin Osman filed an application in court.

Through Advocate Eric Theuri, Yasmin told the court that her husband was kidnapped on November 10 at about 4 pm outside a shopping mall.

She said his whereabouts remain unknown to date even after reporting the incident at the Pangani police station.

"We were just coming out of Sarit when we met about six unidentified armed people who claimed to have been looking for Osman," reads the document in part.

Yasmin proceeds to state that the people grabbed her husband and took off in a silver motor vehicle.

Yasmin says she tried to resist the said abduction process but she was met with violence from the abductors.

"I proceeded to report the incidents of assault and abduction at Parkland police station but there has been no response," she said.
