Two men were arrested on Friday after DCI Anti-Narcotic detectives intercepted a vehicle ferrying 132 bales of bhang at Kyanunda area along the Garissa-Thika Road.

Daniel Yohana and Ismael Wako, the driver and co-driver of the Isuzu truck Reg. No. KAT 198H, were apprehended after a search of the vehicle uncovered 28 bales of the prohibited drug hidden on the roof cabin.

The vehicle was then escorted to DCI headquarters for further processing by Anti-Narcotics detectives, where a thorough search uncovered a false bottom reinforced with strong bolts and rails, concealing an additional 104 bales.

“To reduce chances of suspicion, the vehicle carried 31 mattresses which the driver claimed to have been delivering to waiting customers,” the DCI said in a statement on X on Friday.

“The suspects have since been placed at Muthaiga Police Station and the exhibits secured awaiting weighing and sampling.“

In a separate operation at Fedha Estate in Embakasi, a 51-year-old woman and her 24-year-old male associate were arrested after sachets of heroin weighing 650g were discovered in their residence at Fedha Heights apartment.
