Kilimani police detectives have recovered a Glock 19 pistol stolen from a hotel room and arrested four people in connection with the theft.
The incident began when a licensed firearm holder returned to his hotel room in Kilimani to find his Glock 19 and two magazines containing 30 rounds of 9mm ammunition missing. The room had been ransacked, leaving the victim shocked and concerned for the safety of the firearm.
Police launched a detailed investigation, following forensic leads that led them to Kangemi in Dagoretti North. There, officers apprehended four suspects: Alex Agar, Harrison Oyuoma, Dan Karani, and Beatrice Njoki. A search of their residence uncovered the stolen pistol, hidden but ultimately recovered by detectives.
The suspects are now in custody and undergoing processing ahead of arraignment.
