Investigations into explosion
This is the first major breakthrough in investigations into the January 26 explosion.
Two people - a newspaper vendor and a trolley pusher were rushed to hospital after sustaining injuries in the explosion at the junction between Latema Road and Tom Mboya Street.
Reports said a man who fled the scene shortly after the explosion hired a trolley pusher to carry a box containing what is suspected to be an Improvised Explosive Device which then exploded.
