The UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) is alarmed by Kenya's repatriation of four refugees to Turkey, requested by the Turkish government.
This comes amid reports of abductions in Nairobi, where Turkish citizens were taken by masked men.
The refugees are linked to the Gulen movement, labeled a terrorist group by Turkey.
UNHCR stresses Kenya's legal obligation to protect refugees from forced return to dangerous situations.
Kenyan police are investigating the abductions as concerns rise about the safety of Turkish asylum seekers in the country.
