On December 21, 2019, the DCI obtained orders to investigate a bank account belonging to a fraud suspect who conned a woman out of Sh260,000.
The suspect had falsely promised to secure a Kenya Defence Forces job for the woman's brother, tricking her into sending the money to the account.
The account holder, at the Co-operative Bank, is under investigation for allegedly obtaining cash by false pretenses.
Senior Principal Magistrate Angelo Kithinji of the Makadara Law Courts granted the orders sought by Sergeant Waithaka Keiru of the Kasarani DCI offices.
