A woman suspected of stealing children has been arrested after a manhunt by officers from the Anti-Human Trafficking and Child Protection Unit.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) said on Sunday that Mary Akinyi Mulamula was apprehended in Kabete area, Nairobi after officers received a report of a missing child.
"The child was stolen from her home in Muchingu, Mukango Sub-Location, Kakamega County, on June 6, 2024," said DCI.
Mulamula is said to have deceived the farmhand that she was taking the child to Kakamega to be registered in a sponsorship program that promised a monthly stipend of Ksh.9,000.
She vanished with the child prompting a manhunt that led to her arrest.
DCI says that she had two victims at the time of her arrest who have since been rescued.
She will remain in police custody awaiting further police action.
