One of four suspected thugs shot dead by police yesterday was found with a note indicating his girlfriend should be blamed if he dies.
The note in his pocket stated the man was looking for money to support the woman, whom police declined to name. The note was discovered in his back pocket moments after he was felled by bullets at Parklands 3rd Avenue yesterday at noon.
“Should I die, ***** should be blamed for my death. I will have died finding money for her,” the note read.
The four thugs are believed to be part of a network preying on customers leaving banks after making huge withdrawals.
After they were killed police said they found a pistol and uniforms. The four were said to be on a crime mission. Their identities could not be established as they did not carry identification documents. They were killed by officers from the Special Crimes Prevention Unit.
Nairobi DCI chief Ireri Kamwende said the suspects had attempted to carjack a customer leaving a bank in Westlands. A special team was established to track down the gang.
