A multi-agency team deployed to crack down drug traffickers operating from the Northern Frontier District to the Capital have nabbed a suspected trafficker, Jane Njeri Muigai, in whose possession was discovered 294g of Cocaine concealed in her private part.
The arrest followed the interception of a Nairobi-bound bus from Moyale, at a roadblock manned by the team. Exhibiting behaviour signaling to “the guilty ones are always afraid”, female law enforcers isolated the 28-year-old for a thorough search, thereby confirming their suspicion.
The suspect has been booked at Moyale Police Station, as anti-narcotics officers take up the matter to instigate legal processes.

In order to throw off police traffickers will usually create a decoy mule. They will give a lady like this one a small bag, and given instructions on what to wear. The trafickers then tip off their fellow police. So that the bosses, who already know drugs are coming through can say they intercepted the drugs.
In reality, the real drugs got through via another bus or other means.
