Residents of the area have been sharing CCTV videos of four men who park their car outside an apartment and rob the residents of their valuables, including fridges and TVs, before making away without anyone noticing them.

in one of the videos, the number plate of the vehicle used to carry out these robberies is visible. Still, some residents claim that the number plates are fabricated and cannot be authenticated. The faces of the robbers are, however, very visible because they did not put an effort into hiding them.
Kenyans are faulting the DCI for failure to comment on the matter and are calling for swift action in arresting those involved.
