The DCI said it had intensified operations against the production of fake books in the country.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officers have rounded up a quarter of men believed to operate a printing firm dealing in fake study materials.

An intelligence-led operation by detectives from the DCI Headquarters and Nairobi led to the arrest of two individuals who led to the other two.

The duo, Christopher Muthini Musyoki and Eugine Asunda, were at the Soko Plus building along Ronald Ngara Street where they were caught printing Four Figure Mathematical Tables Covers.

They then aided the detectives in tracing the owner of the store identified as Jeremiah Esikumo Opati.

Opati revealed to the detectives that he had been contracted by the fourth suspect, Muyela Aluta Samuel, who was also traced and arrested.
The printing firm in Nairobi was said to be producing fake study materials for students.

The detectives established that Muyela runs a printing store number 9 situated at Rahu house basement along Mfangano Street where upon their search, a printing machine and Four Figure Mathematical Table templates were recovered.

Upon extensive interrogation, Muyela also led the detectives to his other shop located at Manshram Mansion building room 28 along the same street where over one thousand copies of Four Figure Mathematical Tables without covers were recovered.

All the scenes were documented and the suspects were detained pending arraignment.
