DCI detectives along the Nakuru-Nairobi Highway have arrested one person ferrying suspected ethanol.
Acting on a tip-off, the intelligence-led operation intercepted two tanker trucks carrying ethanol on the Nakuru-Nairobi highway and successfully apprehended one driver.
“Acting on a tip-off regarding tanker trucks with the registration numbers KBJ 745M and KAK 903S transporting ethanol from Mai Mahiu to Nairobi, the multi-agency team promptly located the tankers parked in a garage in the Limuru Kamiruthu area,” said the DCI.
One driver, Edward Nandwa Otundo, was arrested while the other managed to evade capture.
The arrested driver was taken to Capital Hill Police Station for processing pending arraignment, while both lorries are being securely guarded at the garage by officers as the search for the elusive driver is underway.
