🚨 CRACKDOWN IN SAMBURU COUNTY🚨
In the early hours of this morning, we led a successful multi-agency operation targeting illicit brews and narcotic substances in Maralal Town, Samburu County.
The team, led by SSP Nicholas Kosgei, arrested five individuals in Rangau Village, Kirisia Division, for possession and manufacture of illegal brews including chang’aa, busaa, and kangara.
Over 2,000 litres of kangara were seized and destroyed on-site.
All suspects were taken to Maralal Police Station and will be arraigned in court.
This is part of our ongoing efforts to dismantle illegal alcohol networks and protect communities from the harms of substance abuse.
📢 Our message is clear: the fight against illicit brews is relentless, and we are not backing down! @MpashoNews@Tuko_co_ke @ViralTeaKe @InteriorKE@KahawaTungu@TheStarKenya@StandardKenya@citizentvkenya@PeopleDailyKe@CapitalFMKenya@tv47news@Radio47_Kenya

📍SAMBURU COUNTY, MARALAL.
Why is HIV prevalence among FSWs 29.3%?
Because stigma, criminalization & neglect push them away from care.
Let’s protect rights, not punish survival. ✊🏾💜
