The activist had been arrested and detained in Tanzania.

Mwangi was to join others in Dar es Salaam, where Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu was to be arraigned.

He could not leave his hotel as police surrounded it seeking to arrest him.

Despite his efforts to evade arrest, Mwangi was picked up by the officers, who left with him for an unknown location.

His whereabouts sparked rage among Kenyans and other activists who took to social media to make demands to the authorities in Dodoma.

It took the intervention of Kenya's Foreign and Diaspora Affairs Ministry to have him released.

Mwangi was found abandoned in Ukunda and in a sorry state of health.

His associates claimed he had been tortured and could not walk.

Videos would later emerge
