Detectives based at DCI-Kilimani, have in the wee hours of today morning, discovered fake currencies totalling to hundreds of millions of shillings, at a house in Makaazi apartments, in the upmarket Kilimani neighborhood. Image
A total of 6.8Million fake US dollars, 490,000 fake Euros, and 6.4 Million Kenya Shillings was recovered stashed in metal boxes, in the early morning raid that saw two suspects namely Samuel Maina and Boniface Mungai arrested.
Also recovered were jerrycans with an unknown liquid, DeLaRue branded badges and a seal, all suspected to be used in printing of the fake currencies. Assorted documents, customs reflector jackets, United Nations and National Treasury stickers were also confiscated.
The suspects were placed in custody as crime scene detectives combed the apartment for more clues, in what appeared to be a well coordinated, fake currency syndicate. The recovery of the fake currency, followed a report filed by a concerned member of the public, through the
DCI toll free line 0800722203. Should you have any information that may assist us in the fight against crime, #FichuaKwaDCI, USIOGOPE!

DCI is cautioning young ladies on social media, to be wary of fraudsters who prey on them with promises of good life abroad, but end up being swindled their hard earned money.
This is after our counterparts based at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, became alarmed due to the
influx of young ladies who throng the country’s international gateway, ostensibly to collect gifts that have been sent by their online ‘suitors.’
However, upon arrival they are shocked to realise that they have been conned and no such packages exist.
The fraudsters who masquerade as successful businessmen with their social media timelines teeming with photos of their supposed flashy lifestyles, prey on young ladies whom they promise blissful lives abroad and offer to send them expensive gifts to demonstrate their seriousness.
