Hello Listers,

I have received and decided to share this security alert. Although
unverified (by myself), it looks quite practical in it's execution. If it
hasn't happened, I have all reason to believe this can happen, so be on the
RED ALERT.

  In a city where crime takes different shapes everyday, the monster radio
sought out to find out whats really happening in Nairobi.

Over the past few months residents in the up market estates (Kileleshwa,
Lavington, Kilimani and Westlands) have been complaining of frequent
attacks from armed robbers who are riding on motorbikes. Get this right,
not tuk tuk motorbikes but strong heavy CC motorbikes; what we call
“Hondaa” in slang.

The police and victims have identified the robbers as two or three young
guys who ride on the same bike and are armed and dangerous. they mostly
attack female pedestrians but now are also targeting males and motorists
too. they are upmarket and are well kept so you may never have the slight
idea of whom they really are.

the mastermind in the clique is a skinny dark skin tall guy and the bike
rider is chubby and short. the third robber is always in the shadows but is
equally dangerous said a female victim whose identity we are withholding
for security reasons.

last night September 13th, they orchestrated six crimes from 7pm to 11pm
within Adams arcade, Hurlingham, Jabavu lane which is just outside Kilimani
Police station and Brookside, all of which they robbed victims at gun point
and seriously hurt them as well.

The robbers take all sorts of valuables i.e, cellphones, watches,
rings,gadgets etc and resell them in the black market.Currently the
Kilimani area and Kileleshwa police departments are on high alert with
police patrols deployed all over the yaya and valley arcade areas.

Question is, is this an organized crime ring in the making? are these the
only motorbike robbers? or is motorbike crime the new criminal steez?

this is an exclusive public service announcement so kindly share it and
spread awareness because you might be the next victim. we are also urging
anybody with further information to go to the nearest police station and
record a statement if necessary so as to help with the investigation and
bring these culprits to book.****

Kind regards,****
