Maurice Ogeta has detailed the chilling experience he had after being abducted on July 19.
Ogeta is the private security to opposition leader Raila Odinga.
Speaking to a Luo radio station on Saturday, July 22, after securing his freedom, Ogeta said he was apprehended as he prepared to report to work.
He was waiting for his car to be washed when the abductors showed up.
"They found me while my car was being washed. I was actually going to work since I was called as an emergency at 7:30 am," he said.

He says he was not taken to a police station as he had expected.
The men, who he says, were six in number, had concealed their faces, and thus was difficult to identify them.
"They were dressed in hoods, masks and you couldn't see their faces; they only left an opening for their eyes," recalled Ogeta.
The men disarmed him even after identifying himself and revealing to them his occupation.
"One got angry when I identified myself. They took my firearm and everything, handcuffed me, and forced me into their Subaru's boot," he said.
He would then be held incommunicado not to know what was happening around him.
"I was placed under something the English people call incommunicado. You don't know anything that is happening; there's no TV, phone. In case you want to sleep, you face the ceiling board or wall, or you look at yourself," he recounted.
