The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has revealed the faces of two Wells Fargo Company employees who allegedly made away with Ksh.94,918,750 that was collected from Quickmart supermarket over the weekend.
Daniel Mungai Mugetha, the crew commander, and the driver Anthony Nduiki Waigumo are said to have sneaked their mission car out of the company’s Nairobi offices at 6 am on Monday shortly after the money box was loaded, leaving behind the police escort car that was waiting to be flagged off.
“Oblivious that the truck no. KBA 517T they were to escort had minutes earlier snaked away, the armed escort team went to enquire from the management why the loading was taking too long. By that time, neither the truck nor the crew members could be traced,” said DCI in a statement.
The truck was destined for a bank located at Kenyatta Avenue in Nairobi to deposit the money, according to a report by the company’s Investigations Manager.
The duo then dumped the vehicle at Dafarm in South C, Nairobi before fleeing into their hideouts.
A manhunt has been launched to apprehend the suspects.
