In Summary

  • Mchele is the street name of drugging and stealing from revelers. 'Mchele', is a Swahili word for rice because the drugs resemble grains of the cereal.

There were dramatic scenes witnessed on Tuesday, December 13 morning in Kitengela, Kajiado County after a man was seen forcefully taking a woman to the police station claiming she had spiked his drink.

Attempts by members of the public to help the screaming woman who was sandwiched between the shirtless man and a bodaboda rider were met by "Huyu ni mtu wa mchele, twende polisi" response from the angry man identified as Emmanuel Wamalwa.

"This man requested me to take them to Kitengela Police Station from a club on Baraka Road. He claims the lady spiked his drink," said the bodaboda rider when he was approached.

Police officers were puzzled when the trio arrived at the station with the man shouting "Ingia hapa police station na mchele yako. Siwezi kukuachilia".

Kitengela police commander David Ole Shani intervened and the woman took cover behind the reporting desk at the station.

Wamalwa, 32, said he had been trailing the woman after she allegedly stole money from his uncle after spiking his drink two weeks ago in Kitengela area.

"I have been looking for the woman and this morning I found her in a new pub. I went there as a customer and she tried to spike my drink before she became hostile and claimed I was reluctant to pay the bill," he added.

However, the woman denied the claims and said the man had refused to settle a KSh1,750 bill.

Investigations into the matter have been launched.
