After searching the Sirima village residence of Pamela Atieno, 50, Ukwala Police Station officers found 60 liters of kangara.

Following a tip, they went to the 24-year-old Beryl Atieno's house and seized 16 rolls of bhang, 100 liters of kangaroo, 17 liters of change, and 16 sticks of unusual cigarettes.


Following the government chemist's examination of the exhibits, the two women were taken into custody and held at the Ukwala Police Station until their arraignment in court, according to Siaya County Police Commander Cleti Kimaiyo, who verified the raid.
