ARRAIGNMENT OF SUSPECT ARRESTED WITH 255KG OF CANNABIS SATIVA IN KILIFI
A 29-year-old suspected drug trafficker, Winfred Nkatha, has been arraigned before the Malindi Law Courts following her arrest and the recovery of 255 kilogrammes of Cannabis sativa during an intelligence-led operation in Jimba area, Kilifi County.
The suspect pleaded not guilty to the charges and was granted a surety bond of Ksh 2 million with no option of cash bail. The case is scheduled for mention on April 23, 2026, for pre-trial directions.
Her arrest resulted from a targeted operation conducted by detectives from the Anti-Narcotics Unit (ANU) in Malindi, in collaboration with officers from Watamu Police Station. Acting on credible intelligence, the team raided a residential house along Mwatela Road, off the Watamu–Gede Road.
Upon entry, the officers found the suspect inside the house. A thorough search of the premises led to the recovery of eight sacks containing rolls of dry plant material wrapped in khaki paper, suspected to be cannabis.
The suspect and the recovered exhibits were escorted to Watamu Police Station, where weighing and sampling confirmed the total haul at 255 kilogrammes, with an estimated street value of Ksh 7.65 million.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) reiterates its commitment to dismantling drug trafficking networks and safeguarding communities from the harmful effects of narcotics. Members of the public are encouraged to continue sharing information to support the fight against the vice.
