Wednesday, 01 June 2022 – Nine suspects were arrested in connection to nine robbery-with-violence incidents that had been reported across different locations of the country on diverse dates between May 18, 2022, and May 27, 2022.
The thugs were cornered within Kamae and Lineka areas of Kasarani following a stealth operation mounted by Detectives based at the DCI Nairobi area.
