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.
