Activist Boniface Mwangi has called for the arrest of former Sports Cabinet Secretary Rashid Echesa after linking him to sex trafficking business.
This follows an exclusive article by The Standard Newspaper that exposed a sex den in Ruaka which was using underage girls.
The Standard linked the sex den to an unnamed ex-minister, whom Boniface Mwangi believes is Rashid Echesa.
According to the local daily, Police rescued the underage girls and arrested three suspects including a 44-year-old man believed to be the brothel manager.
Skimpily dressed girls, most of them underage were led to the elevator, down the seven floors and into police vehicles. For close to a year, the house was being used as a brothel by the proprietors.
The daily further reports that the former Cabinet minister has been operating the brothel since the beginning of the year.
But activist Mwangi while referring to a previous incident where Echesa was linked to another trafficking case involving Pakistan Bale Bale dancers says Echesa conducted all these illegal activities while having police bodyguards.
The activist has accused the police authorities for protecting a sex trafficker and called for immediate action.
