Kenya Airways (KQ) has protested the arrest and detention of two of its staff by the Military Intelligence Unit in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) for allegedly transporting cargo without customs clearance.
KQ Group chief executive Allan Kilavuka said the two staff were arrested in Kinshasa on April 19, 2024 over alleged missing customs documentation on valuable cargo that was to be transported on a KQ flight on April 12, 2024.
