Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations ( DCI) have arrested three suspects believed to be behind a string of robberies and muggings in the coastal town of Mombasa.

According to the DCI, the three; Shaban Munga Ali, 26, Sande Kalama Kitsao, 24 and Shebani Charo Kalume, 34 are members of a notorious criminal group known as ‘Panga gang’.

They were arrested following a day-long intelligence-led operation.

“Armed with crude weapons including daggers and machetes, the gang operates with impunity mostly within Kiembeni and Kadzandani areas, staging robberies at business premises and muggings on lone pedestrians,” said the DCI.

“The first two suspects ( Munga and Kalama) were nabbed at Mwatamba 2 stage in Kiembeni while Charo Kalume was arrested within Kadzandani while in possession of a knife and two face masks.”

The suspects are set to be arraigned as a crackdown continues for more suspects.
