Police have shot dead another female gangster who is believed to have been close friend of female gangster shot dead in Kayole three weeks ago.
The suspect, only known by her alias Marsha Minaj, was shot dead together with a male suspect on Sunday afternoon at a house in Migingo, in Patanisho area.
Nairobi County Police Commander Japhet Koome said the police were tipped on the gangster’s hideout. He added that when police `went to the house they were in, they found the Marsha with another gang member. They tried to arrest them, but they started shooting at the police officers through the door.
“The officers were forced to return fire and they managed to fatally injure the two and recovered a pistol, five rounds of ammunition and three spent cartridges from the suspects,” Mr Koome said.
Immediately after the shooting, the suspect was identified by a mysterious Facebook user who brands himself as a police officer on war with the armed criminal gangs in Kayole, Huruma, Dandora and other parts of Eastlands.
The mysterious police officer, who goes by the name ‘Hessy Wa Kayole’, posted gory pictures of the suspect at a Facebook group called Kayole Crime Free.
He had previously warned the female suspect through the same platform, that she would die if she did not reform and abandon crime.
