Speaking to a local daily, police sources revealed that they have positively identified the late Ndutire as the leader of a gang behind the Eastleigh robbery.

“He would spend upwards of Sh20,000 a night and still manage to come to the club almost every day. He was very generous,” one of his friends told a local daily.
