Following a sting operation by investigators, one suspect in a widely publicized robbery incident that was recorded on CCTV along Ngong Rd is in police custody.
In the widely shared social media video, a thief was shown robbing a foreign woman brutally of her sling bag before making off on a motorcycle as a second pillion passenger.
The DCI sprang into action and sent a squad of investigators after what appeared to be a well-organized gang that was preying on walkers.
Samuel Ndungo Waweru, a member of the gang thought to have set up its base outside MOGAS Petrol Station along Jogoo Rd, was detained as a result of monitoring carried out by ad intelligence.
Police have since identified his cohorts and have added them to their radar as they continue their manhunt.
