The kidnappers posed as clients wanting to buy a Land Cruiser Prado before they began their hidden mission.

Kennedy Gitau the owner of the car, and Brian Karanja, the broker faced it rough as their business did not go as planned.

The thugs tied them up in the car and drove them around town demanding ransom from their families.

On Saturday evening, the car crashed as they escaped an Uber driver they had hit in Juja before speeding off.

Despite the men firing gunshots in the air to scare him away, he persisted as he knew that the car was the one posted on social media as stolen.

He heard someone screaming for help and looking closely was a bald man in a white vest.

The rescue
