Notorious Vehicle Theft Suspect Jailed for Life! (A thread)

A man who has for the past few years made the lives of lorry drivers a living hell was yesterday sentenced to life by a Loitoktok court. Until his sentencing, Simon Muia Katuu, was the mastermind of a gang that

In yet another investigative piece meticulously put together by our detectives, Simon Katuu was found guilty of robbery with violence contrary to section 296 (2)

of the penal code and sent to where he belongs for life. In a ruling delivered at the Loitoktok, principal magistrate’s court, the presiding magistrate Judicaster Thuku, while handing down sentence said that the court was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that the accused

Two armed gangsters were fatally wounded by our special agents this morning, as they attempted to commit a robbery at a supermarket in Ruaka, Kiambu county. The thugs who were armed with a cseka pistol loaded with 5 rounds of 9mm caliber, opened fire aimed at our detectives

after they declined an order to surrender. What followed was a deafening hail of fire, as the detectives drawn from the elite Special Service Unit responded with finality, killing the gun toting thugs on the spot. Seven spent cartridges were recovered from the scene.

Unfortunately, the detective leading the onslaught suffered a bullet injury in the fierce exchange of fire that brought business in the busy town to a standstill. However, the injury on his left shoulder did not stop him from leading his men in executing the mission successfully

A thug killed a fellow thug in a botched robbery attempt at an engineering company, in Mukuru kwa Reuben early this morning. The thugs armed with crude weapons had gained access to David Engineering company in kwa Reuben, Makadara sub-county and encountered

the firm’s guard in his true element. This is after they scaled the firm’s perimetre wall and leapt inside. The security guard who had initially noticed two dark silhouettes jump over the perimeter, issued a warning against any further movement but the defiant thugs advanced

towards him. A struggle between the three ensued and in a classic case of the hunter becoming the hunted, one of the thugs attempted to stab Ondieki using a knife but Ondieki dashed down and the knife went straight to one of his accomplice’s eye, killing him on the spot.

A 29-year-old man is nursing life threatening injuries at a city hospital, after he was found in a compromising situation with another man’s wife. The man only identified as Kangechu and the woman were having a good time, when the man of the house busted them in his bedroom at

around 4am. Before Kangechu knew what was happening, he was stabbed several times by the man whom he later learnt was the woman’s husband. A shocked Kangechu who lives in Joska recounted how he met the woman at barizi bar in Donholm at around 9pm, where they enjoyed several

rounds of drinks celebrating their newfound friendship. As one thing led to the other, they agreed to crown the night in the woman’s house.
But as they relished the moment at around 4am, the man of the house suddenly returned from a trip he had taken to Murang’a, only to be

SANITIZING THE STREETS OF GANGSTERS!
When Kericho detectives declared an all-out war on a criminal gang that had infiltrated the town causing untold terror to the public, they could well have hoped that the syndicate would shun their felonious trade in the town. They were wrong.

Just four days after launching manhunt for a four-man gang that violently robbed a 21-yr-old lady in a car at Duka Moja area of Kericho, the dare-devil squad struck again on Friday night, harder.

In the 11pm incident on December 10, police received a tip-off from members of the

public of an armed gang that was violently robbing residents at Duka Moja & Brooke areas of Kericho, loading the stolen valuables in an NZE car they were using.

Swiftly responding, the sub-county DCI sleuths backed up by their KPS counterparts rushed to the scene that is barely

his rescue in their numbers. On arrival, they found him writhing in pain after being attacked on the head by the client turned assailant. The angry residents descended on the client with all manner of projectiles, killing him on the spot.
