Kenyan authorities have launched investigations into the mysterious disappearance of a British businessman shortly after he checked into a luxurious hotel in Westlands, Nairobi.
According to reports, the businessman who goes by the name Campbell Scott, was reported missing on Monday, February 17, by his colleague who he had travelled with to Nairobi on official business.
Scott is a senior director with the data company Fico.

It is alleged that Scott, alongside his associate, was in Nairobi for a conference.
He arrived in the country on Sunday and was last seen on Monday around 11:15 am leaving the hotel.
His colleague sensed something was off on Monday around 6 pm after efforts to reach him via his mobile phone proved futile.
An hour later, the hotel recommended police involvement in the matter.
Detectives have since launched a search by visiting local bars and hotels around Westlands.
Five people including security guards and hotel staff have recorded statements with the police.
Detectives have moreover sought the help of Interpol to access the businessman’s phone records to establish the last people he was in contact with before his disappearance.
