Two women were arrested on Friday shortly after being accused of stupefying and stealing from a reveler at a club in Thika Town, Kiambu County.
In what appears to be a grand return of the group popularly known as 'Pishori babes' now rocking night activities in Kiambu's Thika town, the two were arrested as they escaped from a car where a man was lying helpless after the stupefying incident, police said.
The two women were spotted by the club supervisor who was concerned after seeing them forcefully dragging a seemingly too-drunk frequent customer to his Toyota Crown, before putting him in the driver's seat.
Before the supervisor could intervene to stop the man from drink-driving, he said he saw one of the women spraying something on her breasts before she pulled the helpless male towards her.
The man had then completely passed out.
The supervisor sought the help of a few colleagues to stop the women who were then fleeing the scene after stealing the man's ATM cards and other personal documents.
On being alerted about the incident, police officers from Thika rushed to the scene where they found the unconscious man lying in his car, with a bottle of alcohol at whose base settled some white precipitate.
More tablets of a yet to identified drug were found on the women.
The suspects were arrested and booked in cells as the heavily drugged man was escorted to hospital, police said.
The exhibits have since been taken to the government chemist for analysis. Such cases of stupefying have been on the rise in some clubs in and around Nairobi.
In some unfortunate incidences, victims of stupefying have lost their lives after being heavily drugged, hence the need to exercise caution and always party around known friends who would have your back in case of such danger, police say.
According to the Cambridge Dictionary stupefying is an act of making someone unable to think clearly, usually because they are extremely tired or bored, or have taken drugs.
Stupefying to commit a felony is contrary to Section 230 of the Penal Code and carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
