Police officers on patrol duties have arrested two suspects at Sunset area of Mulot in Bomet County, and from them seized copies of identity cards, Airtel sim cards and other items believed to have been used to perpetuate sim swap fraud.

Denis Kipkoech Kirui and Sylvia Chepkemoi were nabbed right in the act after the female suspect unprocedurally registered an Airtel line for her suspected accomplice (Denis) who has been on police radar for sim swap fraud.

The two are cooling their heels at Mulot Police Station cells awaiting their fate in court.

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.
