Detectives based in Nyali, have arrested a woman who was captured on camera spiking a reveler’s drink. According to the officers, the woman later transferred Sh1.7 million from the victim’s bank account to hers after committing the heinous act.

The suspect was positively identified by the victim while in police custody. The woman was identified as 24-year-old Beatrice Mueni Mbiu. Mueni and other two accomplices who are still on the run committed the crime in early September.
