Kiraithe called on members of public who may have any information on their whereabouts to avail the same to the police.
The latest development comes a day after Police Commissioner Mathew Iteere called on Kenyans to be extra vigilant during the festive season as the country’s defense forces engage members of the al Shabaab militia group in neighboring Somalia.
