Vehicle double registration
Waithaka’s registration comes weeks after detectives from Anti-Terror Police Unit raided NTSA offices in Upper Hill where a director in charge of registration was arrested with his clerks.
The detectives arrested staff after confiscating computers in probe into cases of double registration of vehicles, after it emerged that a car used in ferrying terrorists to the dusitD2 complex incident in Riverside on January 15 was fraudulently registered.
The car had similar registration numbers to another one that was in Kitengela.
