Iinqwelomoya ezingaqhelekanga nezingacwangciswanga ezivela e-US kwezi nyanga zimbini zidlulileyo bebefika ngokufihlakeleyo ebusuku eKenya, kwinto eyoyikwayo njengemishini yokuhambisa abarhanelwa kwilizwe.
Ukuhla ebusuku kweenqwelomoya zase-US kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya saseNairobi eWilson, ethwele amagosa e-American Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) aphakamise ukukrokrela kunye neengxabano kungekuphela nje phakathi kweearhente zokhuseleko zasekhaya, kodwa nabadlali beenqwelomoya.

Iqela leNkxaso lasePrescott, elityholwa kwezinye iindawo zehlabathi ngokubandakanyeka ekubuyiseleni abarhanelwa bobugrogrisi, lavunyelwa ukuba lisebenze eKenya kwiinyanga ezimbini ezidlulileyo.
Amaxwebhu esinawo abonisa ukuba inkampani yayivunyelwe ukuba ingene kwaye iphume kwiGazethi yesaziso somhla wama-20 kuJuni iminyaka emibini.

Iqela leNkxaso ye-Prescott, ethi ngokutsho kweendaba zaseMelika, idibanise ne-CIA, ifake isicelo sokuhlaziywa kwelayisenisi yabo ngoMeyi, nangona emva kokuba i-Kenya Association of Air Operators (KAAO) ibuze ilayisenisi kunye nomsebenzi wabo.

Ngaphandle kweenkxalabo, i-Kenya Civil Aviation Authority (KCAA) yaqhubela phambili kwaye yanika ilayisenisi yeminyaka emibini nangona ngokuqhelekileyo bekufanele ukuba bafune imvume kwiSebe lezoKhuselo (DOD) ngenxa yeenqwelo-moya zabo zomkhosi.

Ngokwesaziso seGazethi, i-Prescott Group yanikwa ilayisenisi yokufika eyimfihlo kwi-Embassy yase-US e-Nairobi, amagosa ayo asikwazanga ukufumana inkcazo ngeCawa.
UMlawuli-Jikelele we-KCAA uChris Kuto ngeCawe uqinisekise ukusebenza kweenqwelomoya, esithi babandakanyeka "eTurkana ngeenjongo zemephu".

U-Kuto uthe iinqwelomoya zithwala kuphela amajoni aseMelika kunye nezixhobo zabo kwaye ingengabo abakhweli, ngokuchaseneyo nolwazi oluvela kwimithombo yesikhululo seenqwelomoya iWilson ababonise ukuba abanye abakhweli ababukeki njengamagosa omkhosi wase-US ahlala enxibe iyunifomu.
U-Kuto wongeze ukuba inkampani yenza isicelo sokusebenza kwemephu yasemoyeni eTurkana.
“Sabanika ilayisensi ngokusekelwe kolo lwazi. Asibonanga nto igwenxa okanye nasiphi na isizathu sokungabaniki iphepha-mvume,” utshilo.

Ubukho beenqwelo-moya buza ngexesha apho abasebenzi bezokhuseleko baqalise ukukhangela umrhanelwa ofunwayo wobugrogrisi uFazul Abdullah Mohamed.

Ngokukhula koloyiko lobunqolobi kulo mmandla, bekukho intelekelelo yokuba i-CIA inokuba ngasemva kweenqwelomoya zasebusuku ukubamba kunye nokubuyisela abarhanelwa abavela eKenya.
NgoLwesine, iKenya iphawule isikhumbuzo se-10 ukususela kuhlaselo lwabanqolobi kumzi wozakuzo wase-US eNairobi ngo-Agasti 7, 1998. Ubunqolobi bahlala buyinto yokwenyani emva kokuba ingqonyela, uFazul, inyebelezele kweli lizwe kodwa yabetha umnatha wamapolisa okwesine.

Ukusukela oko uFazul wabonwa eMalindi kwiiveki ezimbini ezidlulileyo, iiarhente zokhuseleko zasekhaya nezamazwe ngamazwe zithe thaa kwaye zabamba abarhanelwa abaliqela abaye banxibelelana naye.
Ukudubula kukaFazul ngoAgasti 7, 1998 eNairobi kwashiya abantu abangaphezu kwama-200 befile yaye abanye abangama-5,000 XNUMX benzakala ngokumasikizi.

Amapolisa achasene nabanqolobi abambe umrhanelwa ngeCawe ekukholelwa ukuba usondelelene noFazul, nanjengoko kurhanelwa ukuba amanye amagosa ezokhuseleko anokuba kuluhlu lwabanqolobi bamazwe ngamazwe.

Iqela lasePrescott lavunyelwa ukuba lenze inkonzo yomoya engacwangciswanga kubakhweli kunye nempahla ephumayo eKenya.

Eli qela kwakhona bavunyelwe ukusebenza ukusuka Afrika nangaphaya usebenzisa inqwelomoya CN235, l382, BE200 esekelwe e-US, Wilson Airport kunye Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
Abasebenzi bafake izicelo zenkonzo ekuqaleni kwalo nyaka. Bekungacacanga uhlobo lwabakhweli kunye nemithwalo abaza kuyithwala nangona amagosa ethe yeyomkhosi kuphela.
Iinqwelomoya ezingacwangciswanga zithetha ukuba zinokubhabha zingene elizweni kwaye zimke kwindawo ezikude, ezingaphucukanga ezingabonelelwa ngabathuthi bomoya bemveli kwindawo abasebenza kuyo.

Umgangatho umisele ukuba inqwelomoya ye-Bich 200, eye-US, iphantsi kolungiso kunye nofakelo lwe-TCAS kwisikhululo seenqwelomoya iWilson.

“Abasebenzi benqwelomoya, bobabini abantu baseMelika, babethe bazakubakhona kangangeentsuku ezili-10, kodwa basekho. Andazi ukuba basuka phi kwaye yintoni injongo yabo,” utshilo injineli kwindawo yokuxhoma, engathandanga kuchazwa igama layo.

Uguqulelo olungaqhelekanga lubhekiselele kwinkqubo ephikisanayo yaseMelika apho abarhanelwa babanjwa, ngamanye amaxesha ngokufihlakeleyo, baze bathunyelwe ukuba baye kuncinwa kumazwe apho uthuthunjiswa lusetyenziswa njengendlela yesiqhelo yokuncinwa.

Iingxelo ezivuzayo zeCIA zicaphula abarhanelwa ababanjiweyo, bebotshiwe, bagqunywe amehlo kwaye bahlaliswa, emva koko bathuthwa, ngokwesiqhelo ngejethi yabucala, basiwe kwamanye amazwe.
Nangona le nkqubo isetyenziswa ukususela ngo-1990s, ububanzi bayo buye banda kakhulu ukususela ngoSeptemba 11, uhlaselo lwe-2001 e-US.

EKenya, iinqwelomoya zase-US zisebenza zisebenzisa isatifikethi sokuSebenza koMoya (AOC) yenkampani yaseMpuma Afrika eseWilson Airport.

Kwisicelo sabo selayisenisi kulo nyaka uphelileyo, babefuna ilayisenisi yokusebenza yasekhaya neyamanye amazwe nge-Ofisi yozakuzo yase-US, kodwa balelwa le yasekhaya.
Ngokwemigaqo yelayisenisi, iinkampani zeenqwelo moya zamazwe ngamazwe azinakunikwa ilayisenisi yasekhaya kwilizwe langaphandle.

Kodwa emva kokusilela ukufumana ilayisensi yasekhaya, amagosa oMphathiswa weMicimbi yezaNgaphandle baye bangenelela bacela ukuba inkampani yeenqwelo moya ikhululwe ukuqhuba iinqwelomoya zasekhaya.

Isithethi samapolisa u-Eric Kiraithe uthe akanalwazi ngokusebenza kwezi nqwelo-moya. Uthe ezi nqwelomoya zinikwe ilayisensi yiKCAA ukuze ziqhube iinkonzo zothutho.
“Ngumba wezomoya lowo kwaye awubakhathaleli amapolisa. Banikwe ilayisensi yi-KCAA ngoko ke asingeni,” utshilo.

Asikwazanga ukufikelela kwi-ambassy yase-US kunye nesithethi somkhosi ukuze siphendule. Iifowuni zabo eziphathwayo bezicinyiwe.

Ngethuba lentlanganiso yelayisenisi ye-12 kaMeyi, abaqhubi bezomoya basekhaya bafuna ukwazi uhlobo lwemisebenzi i-Prescott Group eya kwenza kuyo kwaye kutheni befake isicelo selayisensi yoluntu ngelixa befanele ukuba bafake isicelo kumkhosi ngenxa yokuba imisebenzi yabo yayiyimpi, kungekhona eyabantu.
Kodwa ummeli weQela lasePrescott, uKapteni (Rtd) uJorim Kagua, uxelele intlanganiso ukuba bebengekho kwimeko yokukhupha ulwazi malunga nokusebenza kwenqwelomoya.
Nangona kunjalo, uthe bazakwenza imisebenzi yasemkhosini.

Igosa le-KCAA lixelele iThe Standard izolo ukuba isivumelwano sityikitywe phakathi kweKenya kunye norhulumente wase-US ukwenza imisebenzi yomkhosi engachazwanga.
Ngaphandle kwesivumelwano, iKenya kunye ne-US kutshanje zityikitye isivumelwano samazwe amabini sokuhamba ngokuthe ngqo kweenqwelomoya.

IKenya ngaphambili inikezele ngaphezulu kwe-15 abarhanelwa bobugrogrisi kwi-US kunye nabasemagunyeni base-Ethiopia kwisenzo esacaphukisa iinkokeli ezininzi zamaSilamsi.
