Mr Otieno has been harassing residents in Kilimani, an upmarket residential area in Nairobi.

His story first came to the limelight in February, after a CCTV camera captured him scaling walls and breaking into houses in the area and stealing electronics, money and jewellery.

This earned him the nickname 'spiderman'.
