Daring city gang arrested trying to extort TSC boss


City detectives on Tuesday arrested three men who attempted to extort an unknown amount of money from Teachers Service Commission (TSC) chief executive Nancy Macharia.

The three suspects claimed to be detectives from the office of Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti.

The suspects have been identified as Hillary Ngondi Kyengo, James Ndirangu Kagecha and David Mwaniki Maluki.

They were demanding the money as a bribe to kill off some purported investigations at TSC.

Police have not divulged more information on where the arrests were made and how much the three suspects had asked for.

DCI said the three suspects will be arraigned on Wednesday and charged with obtaining money with false pretense.
