| 2009-11-27 |
| Police in Kiambu have arrested a girl with police uniform reported to have been stolen. During a routine check at Kiambu Bus Park on Friday, wananchi tipped officers of the girl and a young man who looked suspicious. The officers pursued the suspects and caught up with the girl carrying a bag. They found a jungle jacket, a beret, shirt, and a pair of trousers. Kiambu DC Albert Kimathi said the uniform was reported stolen from a policeman in Nairobi on September 24. It is also believed it was being used for hire in Kiambu for Sh5,000. "The uniform is believed to be the one used by gangsters to break into peopleÂ’s homes. Residents say they are robbed because they open their doors thinking the gangsters are policemen," said Mr Kimathi. He commended the public for volunteering information on criminal activities and asked them to be vigilant and help the police. |
