Police have arrested five suspects and recovered dozens of mobile phones and other electronic devices believed to be stolen in separate operations targeting phone theft in Nairobi and Thika.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said the arrests followed swift police responses to phone-snatching incidents and an intelligence-led operation targeting a suspected stolen-electronics racket.
In the first incident, a motorist travelling along Limuru Road near Muthaiga Mini Market Roundabout was robbed of an iPhone 15 Pro Max while making a phone call during afternoon traffic congestion.
