3 Suspects Linked To Embakasi Godown Break-in Arrested

Police officers in Embakasi, Nairobi County, have arrested three suspects in connection with the break-in of a go-down and theft at Vimit Convertors Limited along Mombasa Road. 

In a statement on Wednesday, July 9, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said the suspects breached the facility’s security by scaling the wall and cutting through the iron sheet roof.

“Law enforcement officers in Embakasi have apprehended three individuals behind godown breaking and theft at Vimit Convertors Limited, located along Mombasa Road near the SGR.

“The suspects breached the facility's security by scaling the wall and cutting through the iron sheet roof,” the statement read in part.

The three suspects who targeted the offices at the go-down stole electronics, among other valuable items.

“Once inside, they targeted the offices and made off with a trove of electronics, including two laptops, a Microsoft Surface and a Razer, a Huawei iPad, and a Soundlink Mini speaker, among other valuable items,” said the DCI.

The arrested individuals have been identified as Francis Ndusa Buika, Patrick Mututho, and Ezekiel Ndusa Musyoki.

The trio is currently in police custody undergoing processing pending arraignment in court.

This comes days after DCI detectives arrested a 27-year-old robbery suspect in Likoni, Mombasa County.

The sleuths also recovered a firearm believed to have been used to terrorize residents in the coastal region through violent robberies.

The suspect was apprehended during a sting operation in Mariakani after police raided his room at Prestige Guest House.
