Must read

DCI detectives have recovered Sh60 million in fake US dollars at a transport logistics facility located along Lusaka Road, Industrial Area.

The sleuths were acting on a tip off from an Express Kenya security manager.

The 460 US dollar notes in denominations of 100 were according to DCI director George Kinoti, destined for Muscat, Oman.

The notes, packaged in 12 bundles, were declared as marketing flyers for a non-existing African Global Food Supplies.

Preliminary reports, Kinoti said, have established that one of the local consignors, Belmont Joseph, is a member of a larger suspected criminal syndicate operating from Ngong area, Kajiado County.

Police have also sought the intervention of Interpol to facilitate the arrest of Oman-based consignee, Hamood Abdullah Hamood.

A manhunt has, however, been launched for the local suspects.
