The National Authority for the Campaign Against Alcohol and Drug Abuse (NACADA) has arrested four individuals at Oyster Bay Cafe Restaurant in Kilimani in an operation aimed at curbing the sale and consumption of shisha products.

The arrests come as part of a crackdown on establishments involved in the illicit trade of shisha.

NACADA's Compliance and Enforcement officers say those detained were the manager, sellers, and a storekeeper linked to the establishment.

“We are committed to dismantling the networks facilitating the sale and distribution of shisha, which poses significant health risks to our citizens, particularly the youth."

According to NACADA, 46 shisha bongs, assorted flavored tobacco, charcoal pipes, and a meticulous stock-taking counterbook used in inventory management were confiscated.

The detained individuals are currently in custody, pending the completion of thorough investigations.
