The family of Ms Floviance Razan Owino, has, for two years now, spent sleepless nights wondering where she is.
She went missing in May 2013, leaving her one-year-old daughter in Embakasi with her sister.
On Thursday last week, Ms Owino’s sister received a call from China that further aggravated the family’s agony.
Ms Owino, 28, had been convicted of drug-related offences and would face the hangman’s noose in Beijing, about 10,000 kilometres away.
Ms Owino, a former second-hand clothes dealer in Nairobi, went to her sister’s house one afternoon and left her daughter there.
“For the next few days, she used to call, saying she was with a friend only known by the name Sharon,” her sister told the Nation yesterday.
The two claimed that they were living in Pipeline Estate and were ‘working hard to make their lives comfortable.’ A few days later, the family tried calling her in vain. She never called back.
