This is the untold story of a group of Kenyan women who have managed to escape enslavement by the Islamist militant group Al-Shabab in Somalia. In an exclusive investigation for the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ, Anne Soy discovers that Kenyan women are being abducted and trafficked to Somalia to become sex slaves for the group. They are only able to tell their stories because of one person - called ‘Salama’ - who is single handedly supporting these women when they return to their communities.
