Monday, October 6,
2025 - Police officers have intercepted a Lamu-bound bus and uncovered a
stash of cannabis
cleverly concealed in the luggage compartment.
The bus, registration number KDN 368W and operated by Tawakal
Bus Service, was on
its routine trip from Nairobi
when officers flagged it down for a random inspection.
What initially appeared to be ordinary luggage turned out to
contain two bulky bales of
cannabis sativa ingeniously hidden among bundles of second-hand
clothes.
However, as detectives zeroed in on the suspicious bags, one
passenger, believed to be the owner of the illegal cargo, made a daring escape,
disappearing before officers could react.
Police confirmed that the bus driver and conductor were arrested on
the spot and taken into custody for questioning, as the manhunt for the fleeing suspect
intensifies.
The confiscated narcotics are being held as exhibits as investigations continue.
