In the last year alone , at least 639 Eritrean and Ethiopian nationals were arrested in different parts of Kenya .

Experts are raising questions about the trend and what it means for the integrity of Kenya 's borders.

Some of the aliens are victims of a well-coordinated international human smuggling organisation that operates in the underworld.

Professor Mirjam van Reisen has been studying the Eritrean human trafficking network since 2010 .

She said that it is hard for such a group to operate without the government knowing.

Mr Martin Mavenjina of the Kenya Human Rights Commission said that a number of things usually lead to victims of human trafficking being brought into the country.

He mentioned porous borders saying that so little was being done to ensure that people don’t gain entry into Kenya .
