Stolen shoes manufactured by Bata Company worth Ksh1.5 million have been found at a rented single room in Nairobi’s Kayole area.
According to a local daily, the shoes were on Friday night (July 3) recovered from a house in Obama Estate.
Police say the shoes were acquired using faulty vouchers from different Bata outlets in Nairobi by a suspected fraudster identified as Peter Matheka.
Kayole OCPD Isaac Thuranira told the local daily that Matheka is a former employee of Bata, and the police boss suspects he (Matheka) conspired with current workers at the different Bata shops to exercise the theft.
Matheka, Thuranira said, rented a single-room house in Obama area two weeks ago.
Neighbours said they recently saw a lorry filled with cartons containing shoes being offloaded and the shoes stashed in Matheka’s house.
It is suspected Matheka and co. were planning to sell the shoes when schools reopen.

let the dynasty grouped themselves,so that we can slaughter them at once.
When Murathe says "we" I wonder who it is that he is referring to. Anyway, I believe the road to state house for Dr.WSR might be bumpy but surely the Murathe's of this country can't stop Dr.WSR from getting there! I MIGHT BE WRONG BUT I AM RIGHT.
wow!very captivating news to read, thanks
