Police have recovered a tuktuk that was stolen from a
parking lot along Mama Ngina Drive near Mathai Supermarket in September this
year.
The three-wheeled vehicle was seized in Kariobangi area of Nairobi
County with another number plate.
“This tuktuk was stolen near Mathai Supermarket on 14-09-2017.
Its initial number plate was KTWB 486 G. Following some tipoff from the members
of public, we recovered it yesterday (1st November 2017) in
Kariobangi area with a different number plate, KTWA 347 V,” explained Thika
West OCPD Willy Simba.
The officer believe that the suspects had replaced the registration
numbers to avoid detection.
“Our working relations with our counterparts in neighbouring
counties are cordial and that is why we have managed to recover the stolen
tuktuk. We have put all criminals on the radar in liaison with our
counterparts. Let me warn them that the police are everywhere and we shall move
day and night to ensure the people enjoy their lives without any interference,”
he said.
Simba said the vehicle has been booked at the Thika Police Station along with two suspects, Anthony Wahome and Benjamin Muthomi who will appear in court today (02-11-2017).
