Officers from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) arrested an Eastleigh-based businessman on Friday, May 19, as part of an operation to recover released condemned sugar.
The businessman was apprehended on May 19 while running errands in the Central Business District (CBD).
When detectives inquired about his possession of the condemned sugar, which originated in Zimbabwe, the man led them to his shop in Nairobi’s Eastleigh estate.
During the operation, police recovered 14 bags of sugar while continuing their search for the remaining bags.
The detectives believe the sugar was repackaged at the Eastleigh location before being distributed throughout the county.
