An angry landlord yesterday locked his tenants inside their houses for hours following a dispute over rent.

Tenants at Aden's House in Tassia estate of Embakasi South, Nairobi, were shocked to realise that their landlord had used a welding machine to seal their doors and gates when they refused to pay higher rents.
