a kidnap with wheelchair and medication left behind
Earlier this month you probably saw the news reports of a gang kidnapping somebody from her Kenyan home and taking her to Somalia. They left her wheelchair and her cancer medication, and according to news updates she is now dead.
Here is one of the reports. The focus quite rightly is on the horror of this crime and on what might be done to prevent similar ones in future. In terms of the disability portrayal, I think it's been done quite well. This lady's disability is simply mentioned and it doesn't become the story.
