Tuesday, November 18, 2025 - A joint team of detectives from Mutuati and Igembe North Sub-Counties has cracked down on a violent robbery ring, rounding up six suspects and recovering two Falcon pistols in the process.
The takedown came after weeks of covert surveillance that
finally paid off when officers moved in, storming the suspects’ hideouts
apprehending them flat-footed before they could stage their next attack.
Upon the arrest, detectives recovered two Falcon pistols and
three live ammunition.
Also recovered are two numberless motorcycles, stripped bike
parts, and other incriminating exhibits completing the picture of a crew deeply
entrenched in organised crime.
Ballistics experts are leaving no stone unturned, conducting
a meticulous scientific analysis of the recovered firearms to link them to any
crimes they may have been used to commit.
The six; Derrick Kithinji, Aaron Mwendia, Amon Muarangiri,
Anthony Munene, Francis Mugambi, and Ambrose Muriithi are in custody and will
be arraigned today.
As the country ushers in the festive season, the Directorate
of Criminal Investigations is cautioning criminals that their days are
numbered.
Detectives have intensified crackdowns on such syndicates and are on high alert in case of any eventualities.
