Police arrest materials used to manufacture counterfeit alcohol

In a determined effort to eliminate counterfeit goods from the market, a joint task force comprised of officers from the DCI Headquarters, the Nakuru Regional County Investigations Office, and the Kenya Revenue Authority Enforcement has apprehended three individuals in Nakuru for their involvement in producing counterfeit alcoholic spirit brands.

Mary Mugure, Peter Macharia, and Vincent Kibagendi were arrested in a godown on Print Press Road within the Nakuru industrial area.

Officers seized 60 sacks of assorted bottle caps for various alcoholic spirit brands, a plastic molding machine, two and a half drums of ethanol, and numerous labels and stickers for the counterfeit products.

The recovered items have been transported to the KRA warehouse in Nakuru, and the suspects are currently in custody, pending arraignment.
