Police in Kasarani have intercepted a fuel tanker frying bhang worth Sh8 million suspected to have originated from Ethiopia.
DCI officers also said that the registration number on the fuel tanker was also fake. The driver and turn boy exchanged the registration from point to point to avoid detection
“They hide the bhang inside a compartment in the tanker and this has been taking place for long now,” he said.
This comes weeks after police arrested Simon Kariuki Wangeci alias Tony who is believed to be Githurai’s most wanted drug dealer.
According to the police, Tony is rated among the top suppliers of bhang in Kiambu and Nairobi counties.
He was nabbed together with his two workers while packing bhang. Also, a load of cash was recovered during the operation that entailed officers drawn from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) and the regular police.
“We have managed to arrest the main suspect and nab a huge amount of bhang,” said Kasarani OCPD Peter Kimani.
