CRACKDOWN ON NARCOTIC DRUGS

Anti-Narcotics Unit (ANU) detectives from Nakuru have arrested a trafficker, confiscating bhang valued at approximately Sh11,610,000 in the streets.

Acting on credible intelligence, detectives collaborating with officers from the Dog Unit intercepted a silver Toyota Voxy with registration number KBN 486Z along Kabarak-Nakuru Road.

While the driver managed to slip through the net, the co-driver, identified as Dennis Mukungua, was not so fortunate and was swiftly apprehended.

A search of the vehicle revealed 12 green sacks and 12 bales of bhang, weighing a total of 387 kilograms.

Mukungua, along with the impounded vehicle and the seized narcotics, was escorted to the police station for processing, where he awaits arraignment.

In a separate operation, detectives from Keiyo South teamed up with officers from Metkei Police Station, intercepting a Toyota Fielder, registration number KDV 627S, driven by Vincent Odhiambo in Kapchorwa area of Kamwosor Location.

A search of the vehicle uncovered seven bags of bhang, leading to the immediate arrest of the driver. Like his counterpart, Odhiambo was escorted, along with the seized drugs and vehicle, to Metkei police station for necessary legal proceedings.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations remains firmly committed to dismantling drug trafficking networks through sustained operations and multi-agency collaboration, with zero tolerance for traffickers regardless of status.
