CRIMINALS ALONG KISUMU-NAIROBI ROAD

 

Three criminals who have been waylaying members of the public and robbing them valuables along Kisumu - Nairobi road near CFAO center have been arrested by undercover officers drawn from Kasagam Police Station.

Oblivious of a sting operation to end their reign of terror, the trio who were part of a five-man gang pounced on the officers using an array of crude weapons, too late to realize they had carried the wrong weapons in a battle of guns.

Outsmarted, three of the five obeyed orders to surrender, dropping their weapons as the other two scooted off like terrified warthogs. The latter, having been identified, are being hotly pursued amidst calls to surrender at the Kasagam station.

The arrested, Elly Omondi Oyugi, 22 and Isaac Ochieng, 22 have been placed in custody pending arraignment while Wesley John Oyugi, 27, is in hospital undergoing treatment.

About

The establishment, development and growth of Criminal Investigations Department can be traced to the evolvement of the Kenya Police to which it remains one of the key formations. The first police officers were recruited in 1887 by the Imperial British East Africa Company, I.B.E.A. to provide security for stores in Mombasa. It was from these humble beginnings that the Kenya Police was born.
