This comes a few days after DCI detectives arrested two robbery suspects in Kajiado for stealing wedding gifts from a newly wed couple.
Several items were recovered from the two suspects during their arrest on March 19, 2024.
“Two suspects who invaded a holding room where a newly-wedded couple was staying before embarking on their honeymoon in Kiserian, Kajiado county have been arrested,” read part of DCI statement.
John Mwangi alias Mankufa and James Mwandiki were smoked out of a hide out at Olooseos in Kajiado County, where some of the items looted during previous robbery incidents were recovered.
