LSK steps up pressure over lawyer Abshir Abdi's disappearance

The Law Society of Kenya has intensified pressure on security agencies over the disappearance of lawyer Abshir Abdi, insisting it will not relent in seeking answers. In a statement, LSK President Charles Kanjama said the whereabouts of Abdi remain unknown, despite legal interventions they initiated after Abdi went missing under mysterious circumstances in the early hours of November 1, 2026, sparking concern within the legal profession. LSK has announced fresh demonstrations throughout the week, with Tuesday expected to be a key moment in its campaign. The court is expected to rule on Tuesday on a habeas corpus application concerning Abshir's disappearance.
