Police in Nairobi are looking for two women who have reportedly been drugging men and stealing high-end vehicles in entertainment spots on Thika superhighway.
The women are said to be in a well-organised gang that includes an unknown number of men whose job is to drive away with the vehicles.
Narrating his ordeal, a businessman who fell victim to the women last Saturday says he was drugged and his Toyota Prado TX stolen.
”I was seated at the counter of the club when two women politely approached me and asked if they could join me which I agreed.”
The businessman who did not want his identity revealed said he has no vivid memory of what transpired after the women joined him, but all he recollects was finding himself dumped at a dingy lodging in Githurai 44 and his vehicle missing.
After regaining conscious late in the night, he reported the matter to the Kiamumbi police post in Githurai 44. The police immediately commenced investigations and circulated the registration number of the stolen Prado
Apart from his vehicle missing, his phone and several documents that included his ATM cards could not be traced.
“I have
scanty
recollection of what happened to me due to the effects of the drug they spiked in my drink. All I remember is that we engaged in small talk with the women who for a moment seemed entertaining,” he said.
Police said in the recent past, cases of high-end vehicles being stolen and men being drugged in clubs along Thika road have been on the rise.
A CCTV footage obtained from the club where the businessman was drugged shows the women who appear to be in their late twenties approaching him and later sitting next to him.
What is astonishing about the businessman’s ordeal is the fact that the women were even able to convince him to part with his ATM PIN number of which they went to withdraw Sh21,000 at an ATM at the Mountain Mall along
thika
road.
Later, he was able to block further withdrawals after calling his bank reporting the loss of cards. Footage from the ATM at the Mountain mall shows the two women joined by a man making the withdrawals.
The pictures of the two women have been circulated in different social media platforms and police are urging members of the pubic to report to the nearest police station if they happen to come across them. Further, police have urged
revelers
to be careful with the kind of people they interact with in clubs.
