Raid at Wanjigi's Muthaiga home
Last month saw heavily-armed police raid Wanjigi’s Muthaiga home where several items were recovered with police linking him to the wave of anti-government protests.
Wanjigi was however not found at his home during the raid that lasted several hours.
The businessman was seized and detained in connection with anti-government protests when he presented himself to police.
Shortly after his release, Wanjigi talked tough, promising to go after President William Ruto who he accused of kidnapping his allies along with several protesters.
"We are standing in solidarity with the families who are searching for their loved ones, those who have been abducted and disappeared," Wanjigi declared at the time.
"I am deeply affected by this situation, especially after Bob Njage and the Longman Twins came to visit me in Kamukunji. They were taken by the police, and it has been three weeks without any trace of them," he added.
The prominent businessman and politician recently took to social media to express concern over what he termed as unprecedented surveillance outside his Muthaiga residence in Nairobi.
Cars with complex tech surveilling Wanjigi's family
Wanjigi shared images of unmarked vehicles allegedly stationed outside his home for the past week, raising fears for his safety and that of his family.
“Why are unmarked vehicles outside my residence in Muthaiga for the last one week? This is clearly harassment on me and my family, this surveillance is unprecedented! These vehicles are jamming all communication to my residence !” Wanjigi lamented.
The photos he posted depicted several SUVs, some equipped with what appear to be advanced surveillance or jamming devices mounted on their roofs, further suggesting covert operations aimed at tracking or monitoring Wanjigi's activities.
This type of equipment is typically used to block mobile phone signals, Wi-Fi, or other electronic communications within a specific radius, creating a communications blackout for those targeted.
