A police officer filled his stomach with Kenyan notes after he saw EACC officers advancing towards his side to arrest him.
Kepha Momanyi,who is attached to the Dog Unit at Mombasa’s Kisauni area had demanded Ksh 3,000 from a tuk tuk rider.The rider alerted EACC officers, who responded immediately. After the rider had just left the scene,EACC officers arrived.Mr Momany,a potbellied officer ,realized his daily bread could end there and then,he decided to swallow the Ksh2,000 notes…without water.
“Upon being taken to the OCPD’s office, he removed his pistol and threatened to shoot us,” the detective said.
“He swallowed the money and in the confusion, managed to escape and is still on the run,” the official said.
“We will get him even if it takes one year,” Ojowi said.
