The National Police Service (NPS) has confirmed receiving a missing person report for Davis Lichuma, even as it called on the public to report any cases of enforced disappearances, torture, or other human rights violations.

In a press statement issued on Sunday, June 28, 2026, the Service said the report on Lichuma was filed at Central Police Station in Nairobi and assured the public that investigations are underway.

“Furthermore, we acknowledge receipt of a report of a missing person, namely Davis Lichuma, which was made at Central Police Station in Nairobi,” the statement said.

Case reporting

The police service called on members of the public to report any cases of enforced disappearances, torture, or other human rights violations, saying it is treating allegations circulating on mainstream and social media with the seriousness they deserve.

“As a service committed to accountability and transparency, we take these claims seriously. We therefore urge anyone with information or specific allegations of enforced disappearance, torture, or other human rights violations to report the matter immediately at the nearest police station,” the statement read.

“We guarantee that all reports will be investigated thoroughly, professionally, impartially, and expeditiously, in accordance with the law.”

Missing protestors

The police report comes a day after the Kenya Human Rights Commission (KHRC) reported that three people who reportedly disappeared during the June 25 commemorative protests were found abandoned in Nairobi’s Hurlingham area in the early hours of Saturday, June 27, 2026, while four others remain unaccounted for.

In a statement released on Saturday, June 27, 2026, the rights organisation said the three “comrades” were found at around 5 a.m. after being forcibly disappeared during the demonstrations marking the second anniversary of the June 25, 2024, anti-government protests.

“Three comrades who forcibly disappeared during the June 25 commemoration were found dumped around Hurlingham today at 5 am. Four others are still missing. We demand their immediate, unconstitutional release,” KHRC said.

Total number of arrests

According to Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen on June 25, 2026, police arrested 355 people across the country during the demonstrations, which were held in Nairobi and several other towns.

Authorities said those detained were suspected of offences including robbery, vandalism, obstruction of roads, and attempted theft.

Nairobi County recorded the highest number of arrests at 161, followed by Kajiado with 123 and Kiambu with 36. Other counties where arrests were reported include Murang’a (12), Bungoma (9), Meru (6), Laikipia (5) and Machakos (3).
