What Police Found in Ruaka
Detectives uncovered a number of leads in the Sh40,000 Ruaka apartment where one of the suspects had lived in since September.
The attacker had created a hole in the house and hidden an assortment of weapons in it.
Police were tipped off on the Ruaka apartment by a neighbour who recognized the car that was used to ferry the attackers to Dusit.
