Detectives from the DCI Headquarters' Serious Crime Unit have arrested George Waweru Ngendo over allegations of obtaining money by false pretences through a purported overseas job recruitment scheme.

Waweru, a director of Geovany Agencies Limited, a company suspected of operating as a fraudulent recruitment agency, was arrested following investigations into a complaint by a victim who allegedly lost Sh110,000 after being lured with promises of a lucrative job opportunity in Qatar.

Investigations established that the promised employment opportunity was allegedly used as a means of obtaining money through false representations. Upon completion of investigations, the case file was forwarded to the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP), which approved charges against the suspect.

The suspect is currently being processed and is expected to be arraigned before the Milimani Law Courts on Monday, July 27, 2026.

The DCI cautions members of the public to verify the legitimacy of recruitment agencies before making any payments for overseas jobs. Always confirm that an agency is duly registered and licensed by the relevant government authorities before committing your hard-earned money.
