The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) has disclosed the faces of two Wells Fargo employees who escaped with Kes 94 million belonging to Quickmart Supermarket.
The two employees, Daniel Mungai Mugetha (crew commander) and Anthony Nduiki Waigumo (driver) sneaked the truck out of the Wells Fargo Nairobi offices shortly after the money-box was loaded, leaving behind the police escort car that was waiting to be flagged off on Monday November 6, 2023.
They dumped the company vehicle at Dafarm in South C, Nairobi in the 6am incident.
Oblivious that the truck Reg. No. KBA 517T they were to escort had minutes earlier sneaked away, the armed escort team went to enquire from the management why the loading was taking too long.
By the time, neither the truck nor the crew members could be traced.
A report by the company’s Investigations Manager indicated that the Isuzu Canter was destined to Family bank located at Nairobi’s Kenyatta Avenue.
Police in Lang’ata were mobilized to pursue the daring duo, only to trace the empty truck abandoned in South C.
The suspects are believed to have escaped in another car.
A special operations team has since been deployed to pursue the suspects.
