A team of detectives from Dandora and Shauri Moyo has arrested a murder suspect in a coordinated intelligence-led operation that also led to the recovery of a firearm, ammunition, and suspected stolen property.
The suspect, identified as Peter Kimani, also known as “Kim,” was cornered and apprehended along Gallole Street in Eastleigh.
During the arrest, officers conducted a search and recovered a Retay Falcon pistol, a live 9mm hollow-point round, and a spent cartridge of the same calibre, raising concerns about the suspect’s possible involvement in violent criminal activities.
Detectives also impounded a red Boxer motorcycle bearing registration number KMGT 530S, which is believed to be stolen.
Authorities are now working to establish the motorcycle’s rightful ownership and whether it was used in the commission of crimes.
Kimani is currently being held in police custody as investigations continue. He is expected to be arraigned in court once processing is complete.
Police have reiterated their commitment to cracking down on violent crime and the circulation of illegal firearms, warning that those involved will face the full force of the law.
