Two Kikuyu Women Arrested in Kiambu for Operating Drug Den Disguised as Shop

Detectives from the Anti-narcotics Unit and the Operations Directorate conducted an intelligence-led operation in the Kimbo area of Kiambu County today, resulting in the arrest of two suspects and the seizure of narcotic drugs.

During the operation in the Backstreet area, detectives first targeted a residence, recovering dried green plant material, multiple rolls of cannabis, weed cookies stored in clear buckets, a digital weighing scale, and an electric oven used for baking cookies. The individual residing in the house managed to evade arrest.

At the second location, also functioning as a shop, detectives apprehended 38-year-old Pauline Wanjiru Njeri and 35-year-old Monica Wangare. Several packaged rolls of cannabis sativa and items believed to be proceeds from the drug trade were confiscated.

As the search for the remaining suspect continues, the Directorate of Criminal Investigations is warning parents about a concerning trend where minors are being lured into using illicit drugs disguised as edibles, such as cookies, often without their knowledge. This underscores the urgent need for increased awareness.

The Directorate of Criminal Investigations remains committed to combating the sale, distribution, and use of illicit drugs in the country.
