Wednesday, August 19, 2026 - Detectives from the Banking Fraud Investigations Unit (BFIU) and officers from Nakuru Police Station have apprehended 14 suspects linked to a string of cybercrime activities in Nakuru.
The raid unfolded in the Pangani area of Nakuru Township,
where the suspects were found in a room conducting their illicit online
scamming operations.
Authorities seized a trove of evidence, including 25 mobile
phones, 16 SIM card plates, and 10 SIM cards, all tools of their nefarious
trade.
Investigations revealed that the suspects had created fake
websites, including Zain Coach, Harmain Coach, and Habesh Coach, which they
used to scam unsuspecting travellers.
With the allure of easy online bus ticket purchases, many
were left devastated, their hard-earned cash disappearing without a trace.
The 14 suspects now find themselves behind bars, undergoing
processing pending arraignment.
Meanwhile, the seized items have been secured as exhibits in the ongoing investigation.
