US offers reward for information to bring two Kenyan nationals to justice

WASHINGTON, 27 May 2022, (TON): The U.S. Department of State is offering rewards of up to $1 million each for information leading to the arrests and/or convictions of two fugitive Kenyan nationals, Abdi Hussein Ahmed and Badru Abdul Aziz Saleh, for participating in, or conspiring to participate in, transnational organized crime.

Ahmed has been charged in the United States with wildlife trafficking in violation of the Lacey Act and with conspiracy to commit wildlife trafficking in violation of the Endangered Species Act and Lacey Act.

Additionally, Ahmed is charged in Uganda and Kenya with violations of the Uganda Wildlife Act, the Kenya Wildlife Conservation and Management Act, and the Kenya East Africa Customs Act.

This reward is offered under the Department of State’s Transnational Organized Crime Rewards Program.

The TOCRP and Narcotics Rewards Program have helped bring more than 75 transnational criminals and major narcotics traffickers to justice since the inception of the NRP in 1986.
