Six suspects who were arrested in connection with a Sh72 million heist last week have been released from police custody.
The suspects were presented in court on Monday and charged with robbery with violence.

A day after the heist, police recovered 13 money bags and an abandoned G4S van in Thogoto Forest, Kikuyu Constituency.
DCI officers on Saturday, however, caught up with two members of the National Police Service believed to have been part of the heist.
Constable Chris Ayienda Machogu was found with Ksh4 million in his possession while Constable Vincent Owuor had Sh3 million at his house in Kendu Bay.
"Detectives investigating the matter have established - and the suspect confirmed - that a Subaru Forester was bought on the same day of the Heist using the stolen Money. The two suspects were planning to travel to Uganda with the cash," a statement from DCI read in part.
