Kenyan police said Saturday they were holding three suspects who were arrested for robbing two Chinese contractors in central Kenya.
The suspects attacked the two Chinese contractors in their residential house on Friday night at Kariminu (II) Dam site in Kiambu County and seized 6 million shillings (about 55,600 U.S. dollars), Kiambu County Police Commander Ali Nuno said.
“The two Chinese contractors were forced to surrender approximately 6 million shillings,” Nuno said.
He said they have launched investigations, noting that the suspects armed with pistols could have gained entry through a tunnel used for water supply.
The police commander said that the suspects, including a night guard and the driver of the Chinese contractors, were in police custody, adding that the hunt was still on to arrest more perpetrators.
Nuno said the suspects will be arraigned in court on Monday to face charges of robbery with violence.
