Acting on credible intelligence, the officers stormed a rented house at Kwa Hola Village, where they arrested 42-year-old Mwanaisha Abdalla Gona alongside his accomplice, 37-year-old Nancy Njeri.
What detectives uncovered inside the house exposed a silent but deadly drug den operating right under the noses of unsuspecting residents. A search led to the recovery of 902 rolls of cannabis sativa neatly wrapped in khaki papers and ready for the streets, weighing approximately 300 kilograms.
Detectives also seized 3 kilograms of skunk packed in sachets, alongside 300 grammes of heroin, all with an estimated street value of Sh2.19 million,” said DCI
The suspects have since been moved to Chaani police station pending their date with the court.
“For the suspects, the game of cat and mouse ended as they were escorted to Chaani Police Station, where they are being processed pending their day in court. Meanwhile, the recovered drugs have since been secured as exhibits,” said DCI
