Kenya's cybercrime scene has been thrust into the spotlight following the arrest of 26-year-old Seth Mwabe, a university dropout implicated in a Sh11.4 million digital heist against a leading betting firm.

Mwabe, once a second-year Information Technology student at Meru University, was tracked down by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Banking Fraud Unit and arrested at his Tatu City apartment last week.
