Two suspects masquerading as Anti Corruption officials are currently in police custody.
DCI Detectives were called to action when one Isaac Wandere, was harassed by the duo over a land fraud case.
Led by Gordwins Agutu, a serial fraudster who has had previous run-ins with the law, the two were arrested after they gained entry into the WanderJoy Party headquarters along Kiambu road.
The suspects who were driving two top of the range vehicles fitted with strobe lights and well built ‘sleuths’ hanging precariously on the vehicles’ doors, forcefully gained entry into the premises causing a scene that left workers scared stiff.
The self-styled anti-graft director and his accomplice David Mburu, who introduced himself as the anti-corruption deputy director, went straight to Wandere’s office and made their demands without blinking an eye.
“Immediately after they arrived, the men who had accompanied Agutu and sealed off the compound posing as VVIP security detail while flashing walkie talkies, scampered for dear life towards Karura forest leaving their master and his deputy in the hands of our sleuths.” DCI wrote.
Agutu’s history in fraud stinks to high heaven. In September 2017, he posed as a Senior Superintendent of Police attached to the Criminal Investigations Department.
In his possession were two other employment cards, all indicating that he held senior management positions at the Kenya Revenue Authority and Kenya Pharmacy and Poisons Board.
While masquerading as a surveillance officer in the Pharmacy and Poisons board, the suspect is alleged to have closed down several hospitals for allegedly not meeting certain regulatory requirements.
On January 26, 2022 accompanied by his miscreant gang, Agutu had visited Sidai Oleng club along Kiambu road and attempted to abduct its owner John Ngugi, over undisclosed investigative cases that he was conducting against him.
The suspect operates in hired top-of-the range Toyota prados, which often use the wrong side of the road with strobe lights flashing on their rooftops and a siren blaring for other vehicles to give him way for his next mission.
Detectives have been granted custodial orders to detain the suspect until Monday next week, when the suspect will take plea.
