The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has successfully apprehended three robbery suspects who have been under police surveillance since 2023.
In a statement issued by the DCI, it was revealed that a prolonged joint operation culminated in the arrest of 39-year-old Julius Osoro Nyagoi in Nairobi’s Kilimani area on Wednesday.
Following Nyagoi’s apprehension, subsequent interrogation led the officers to his residence at Green Park Estate in Athi River, Machakos County, where his accomplices were believed to be residing.
During the search, law enforcement officers recovered a Czeska pistol loaded with 7 rounds of ammunition, two pairs of motor vehicle number plates, assorted motor vehicle parts, and several SIM cards from the premises.
Additionally, a variety of items including mobile phones, two laptops, an iPad, logbooks for cars registered under number plates KCE 135W and KCQ 381A, wristwatches, and ATM cards were seized during the operation.
The trio, now in police custody, has been transferred to Pangani Police Station and is scheduled to be arraigned in court today, Thursday, April 11. The swift action by law enforcement agencies underscores their commitment to combatting crime and ensuring public safety.
