Thursday, March 20, 2025 - Police officers from Wajir Police Station have apprehended two suspects linked to a daring night robbery at Shawal Petrol Station along Mandera Road in Wajir Township.
The suspects, identified as 49-year-old John Mwaura and his
28-year-old accomplice Muia Mutuku, were nabbed after a distress call alerted
officers of an ongoing heist at the said petrol station.
Acting swiftly, officers arrived at the scene and discovered
that a gang of five thugs, clad in jungle uniforms, impersonating police
officers, had stormed the petrol station overpowering the watchman and pump
attendant, tying their hands with ropes before making off with Sh30,000 in
cash.
However, their escape was short-lived as the officers hotly
pursued them leading to the arrest of the two who were swiftly cornered and
taken into custody.
The duo was found in possession of a mallet, an
Administration Police jungle jacket, a military jungle trouser, and a military
jungle jacket, among other incriminating items.
The suspects are currently undergoing processing pending
their court appearance.
Meanwhile, the hunt continues for the trio still at large.
