Tuesday, July 29,
2025 - Detectives from the Operation Support Unit (OSU) have arrested four
individuals accused of perpetrating elaborate gold scams that have robbed
unsuspecting victims of their hard-earned money.
The suspects: Patroba Odhiambo Tobias, Isaac Forkay Sleyon,
Omong Ekoume Louis and Wadja Bangsi Tang, were taken into custody during a
meticulously planned raid at a residence in Gigiri, situated along Whispers
Avenue.
A thorough search of the premises uncovered a trove of
incriminating evidence, including a gold smelting machine, an array of rubber
stamps bearing the names of companies such as Alaska Express Freight Group Ltd,
Longcrane Logistics Limited, and Kakan Traders and Company, numerous plastic
seals, a weighing machine, and a cache of documents bearing stamp impressions
from the East African Community, among other items.
Preliminary investigations have revealed that Alaska Express
Freight Group Ltd has also been linked to a recent complaint involving two
Canadian nationals who were defrauded of USD 37,500 last week.
The suspects are currently in custody and are undergoing processing in preparation for their arraignment.
