A BURGLARY INCIDENT THAT GAVE IN A SUSPECTED CRIMINAL

Following a distress call received at Inuka Police Station in Likoni Sub-County regarding a burglary incident at Mnarani area, police officers swiftly responded and later found the victim, Arafat Juma Saidi, with suspected stolen goods and other incriminating materials in his house subsequently arresting him.

The officers, led by the Officer Commanding Inuka Police Station, rushed to the scene and established that criminals armed with machetes and other crude weapons had broken into the rented house of Arafat Juma Saidi. The miscreants gained entry by climbing over the main gate and then breaking the steel door of the house using strong metal bars. They stole one mobile phone and an unknown amount of money before escaping, leaving Arafat with two deep cuts on his head, necessitating medical attention at a nearby hospital.

Upon revisiting the scene, officers discovered a hole in the ceiling board of the house. On peeping through the hole, the officers unearthed four machetes (one blood-stained), two kitchen knives, two televisions (55-inch and 43-inch), sixty-one mobile phones of various brands, one portable public address system, one card reader, two copies of ID cards bearing the name Arafat Juma Saidi, and one East African passport bearing the same name.

Following this development, Arafat was traced to Sagawa Medical Clinic, where he was arrested and escorted to Inuka Police Station along with the recovered exhibits, awaiting further processing and subsequent arraignment.
