SG Associate Editor Alex Kiprotich found safe, he was dumped near Masinga Dam

2nd September, 2026

Standard Group Associate Editor Alex Kiprotich has been found safe.

Mr Kiprotich was found at 2am dumped some 10 meters away from Masinga Dam, nine hours after he was abducted along the Gilgil–Nakuru Road by armed men.

In a statement, the news organisation said Mr Kiprotich sought refuge at a nearby household before a Standard Group team located him at around 6. 30am.

“He is safe and okay, though visibly shaken by the ordeal,” read part of the statement.

Kiprotich told colleagues he was taken by four masked men armed with an AK-47, travelling in a Subaru bearing registration KDC 125E, whose check reveals to be a government vehicle.
