Officers from the National Police Service based at Kabete Police Station have recovered an AK 47 rifle stolen from Dagoretti Police Post during the June 25, 2025 demonstrations.
The breakthrough came after a tip-off about a suspicious individual carrying a bulging bag at Gravity Bar in Gahui area.
Responding swiftly, officers descended on the establishment and, aided by forensic leads, identified the suspect.
The trail led officers to the suspect’s residence in Njuki-Kirigu area. But upon spotting them, he vanished without a trace.
A search of his home, conducted in the presence of his mother, uncovered an AK-47 rifle, an empty magazine, and a single round of 7.62mm special ammunition, all items confirmed to have been stolen from Dagoretti Police Post.
A manhunt is now underway as investigators pursue fresh leads to bring the fugitive to justice.
