A man who has been described as a dangerous robber alongside an Uber driver have been charged with violently robbing off a police officer.

Vincent Otieno and Musa Ouma are accused of robbing the officer and stealing his pistol, phone, money and bullets all valued at Sh102,294 at gunpoint.

The duo were charged before Kibera senior resident magistrate Renee Kitagwa where they denied the charges.

The two committed the offense on August 4 in Kawangware green farm in Dagoreti Sub-county Nairobi jointly with others while armed with a pistol.

They were released on Sh500,000 bond with the surety of the same amount.

In a separate file, Vincent was separately charged with six counts of robbery with violence.
