Two individuals have been arrested over fraudsters through impersonation of Nyayo House Immigration officers.
According to Ethics and Anti-corruption Commission, on Thursday it arrested two suspects namely Patrick Kizengwa Kilaya and Billy Kidula Adingo who were impersonating immigration officers at Nyayo House and extorting money from persons seeking services such as passports and work permits.
The two, according to reports seen by the k47 digital news team, were arrested after soliciting Kes.370,000 from a Norwegian National pretending that they were in a position to assist him in securing a Kenyan work permit and other immigration documents within minutes, so long as he gave them the money.
The complainant reported the matter to EACC which mounted an operation and arrested the suspects while receiving the amount.
They will be arraigned before the Anti-Corruption Court next week.
