Three suspects linked to a daylight robbery and shooting in Nairobi\u2019s Eastleigh area were found dead.<\/span><\/p>\n

The shooting and robbery took place March 30 and about Sh3.9 million was stolen.<\/p>\n

A victim of the robbery is still in hospital with a spinal injury.<\/p>\n

The bodies of Fredrick Kopo, Jaylen Kibe and one woman only identified as Esther were found at the City Mortuary on Sunday.<\/p>\n

They were booked as victims of drowning and their bodies recovered from a river in Lari, Kiambu County.<\/p>\n

Kopo who is also known as Baba Shania alias Frik was from Huruma, Kiamaiko.<\/p>\n

Kibe was buried at the Kariokor cemetery on Tuesday April 9, according to his family.<\/p>\n

He was a Muslim.<\/p>\n

The body of Kopo was badly injured with one eye missing and a broken leg.<\/p>\n

He had also, together with Kibe been traced to Mombasa after the robbery and arrested. It is not clear at what point he was released.<\/p>\n

He had run to Mombasa to purchase a car after the robbery, those close to him say.<\/p>\n

He had also been placed at the scene of the shooting and is the one who pulled the trigger seriously injuring Adan Ali Mohamed in the neck.<\/p>\n

His accomplice too was located in Mombasa where he was traced to.<\/p>\n

He was in the company of a woman who is only identified as Esther.<\/p>\n

Police did not respond to the news of the bodies in mortuary.<\/p>\n

The families of Kopo and Esther refused to disclose much on them. They are meeting in Huruma to plan for their burial.<\/p>\n

A team of detectives had been sent to pursue the gang that shot and seriously wounded a 26 year old man during a robbery mission of $30,000 (Sh3,969,726).<\/p>\n

The gang was riding on a motorbike when they struck hitting Adan who was also on another motorcycle headed to the same direction on Eastleigh’s Muratina Street.<\/p>\n

Police said the incident happened Saturday March 30 at 11 am at the crowded place.<\/p>\n

The incident was captured on security cameras.<\/p>\n

The rider carrying the gunman had sped and overtook the one with Adan and stopped before he jumped off and approached the victim.<\/p>\n

He was seen demanding a bag carrying the cash and when Adan hesitated, he was shot at close range in the neck.<\/p>\n

Doctors said the bullet injured the spinal cord and exited at the back.<\/p>\n

He fell off the motorcycle as his rider remained confused.<\/p>\n

The gunman grabbed the cash and jumped onto his waiting motorcycle and drove away.\u2028Adan said had intended to deposit the money at one of the banks at BBS Mall.<\/p>\n

However, upon arrival, he discovered that the bank was closed when he decided to return home, opting to ride a bodaboda for convenience.<\/p>\n

He did not know he was being pursued by the thugs who had prior information on the cash.<\/p>\n

The cash was from two days sales of oil products his boss handles in the area.<\/p>\n

As the rider reached the Bulsho car wash on Muratina Street, another bodaboda rider intercepted him. The perpetrator immediately grabbed the cash, wrapped it in green paper, and fled the scene.<\/p>\n

Witnesses rushed Adan to the nearby Health Gate Hospital where he was admitted.<\/p>\n

Police are also investigating to know if the incident was an inside job.<\/p>\n

They will review the people who had interacted with the victim and all those around him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
