Over Ksh.120 Million worth of Mobile Phones which were on 10th April, 2020 stolen while on transit from African Cargo at JKIA to Rolling Cargo Ltd warehouse in Eastleigh were today recovered by DCI Detectives at Muimara Estate in Imara Daima.
In this sleek pursuit, four suspects were also arrested.
The said cargo parked in 750 cartons was being ferried on an Isuzu FRR lorry Reg. No. KBZ 628X driven by 40-yr-old Daniel Kavuti. The lorry was diverted from the designated route only to be found abandoned along Masai Road while empty.
Acting on intelligence, a team of DCI HQS, Nairobi Area & Buruburu detectives narrowed down on some members of an organized criminal cartel within Nairobi, arresting the four namely;
Mwangangi Kyalo-41yrs
Jacob Waithaka-39yrs
Patrick Irungu-45yrs, &
Newton Mwenda-35yrs.
Interrogations on them led the team to a House no. 001, court no. 70 of the said estate, where 629 cartons containing the phones were recovered. Efforts to recover the rest of the cartons are underway. The lorry driver who is still at large is advised by the DCI to surrender himself at any police station near him.
