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.
