Two Dandora shop owners arrested after 95 ‘stolen’ phones were recovered, including one belonging to murder victim

Police in Dandora Phase IV, Nairobi, have arrested two suspects connected to the murder of a young man in the area on Thursday, March 7.

Malcom Omondi Odhiambo of MJ Investments and Justus Muema of Neema Shop in Dandora Phase IV were arrested after they were interrogated by Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officers based at Starehe.

“This is after painstaking investigations led sleuths to Malcom’s business shop where the victim’s mobile phone earlier robbed by the perpetrators of the evil act was taken, and later sold out by him to Justus who was arrested in its possession,” the DCI says.

The DCI reports that a total of 95 assorted mobile phones believed to be stolen property were recovered from the shops of the two suspects.

Two other suspects arrested

Police had already arrested two suspects accused of committing the actual crime of killing the young man in the wee hours of Thursday, March 7.

Investigations have revealed that the two suspects with the deceased were walking in the same direction and after a disagreement, one of them drew a knife and stabbed the other on the left side of the chest.

Nehemia Odhiambo, alias Oti and Emmanuel Otieno, alias Emasu fled from the scene but the victim who sustained a deep cut on the left side of the chest succumbed to the injuries while receiving treatment at Baba Dogo health facility.
