Two of the deceased drug baron Akasha Abdalla’s granddaughters have converted to Christianity.

On Thursday, the young women who went missing three weeks ago told the court that they had not been abducted but had been traumatized.

They appeared virtually before Justice Weldon Korir and stated that they were apprehensive about meeting some members of their family, but that they were at ease with their father. In the filings, he was not identified.

Fida, the federation of women lawyers, is currently holding the two.

Hayat Akasha, the widow of drug baron Ibrahim Akasha Abdalla, filed a court action on August 27 alleging that her grandchildren had gone missing.

When the issue was brought up on Thursday, it was revealed that the young adults had converted to Christianity.

Hayat’s lawyer, John Khaminwa, informed the court that one of the girls is pregnant. He suggested that the case be resolved through mediation.

The court agreed, and mediation was ordered.
