Three Including Former MCA Arrested For Impersonating EACC Investigators
The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has arrested three individuals accused of impersonating senior EACC investigators and extorting money from government officials and parastatal heads.
Former Kyululu Ward MCA James Mbuvi Kula, Mike Muthami Kasingi, and Raphael Muthoka Kithembe were apprehended on Wednesday at a bar in Komarock.
The suspects were caught while allegedly waiting to extort a complainant who had already outsmarted them.
A search conducted by EACC officers uncovered 12 mobile phones, 22 SIM cards, and eight notebooks containing names and details of potential victims.
According to the Commission, the arrests follow multiple complaints about the suspects’ fraudulent activities.
The EACC has urged the public to remain vigilant and avoid falling prey to imposters.
“EACC investigators have official job cards, which they produce for identification while on duty. Further, the Commission summons persons of interest via official written communication to appear at the Headquarters or the nearest Regional Offices or at a police station.”
