“We went inside to check if my sister was okay and we found them unconscious. They had been given drugs to make them sleep, so we had to take them to the hospital. Now they are fine,” said one family member.
“This was a brand new car, worth KSh 35 million. We woke up to find the whole car destroyed and everything removed. I have never seen anything like thisi,” said another family member.
Why did the residents of Kirinyaga think ‘experts’ were involved?
Residents suspect that the act was done by professional people because it was carried out with great care.

How did Kenyans feel about the incident?
@francismuiruri6264: “That is, for this when someone buys a car worth KSh 35 million.”
@Rachel-c1t6z: “Man, and there are people who don’t have food, KSh 35 million? Kenyans are rich.”
@ruthn9381: “No CCTV?”
@pristinendungu2231: “I am surprised KSh 35 million for one car; the thieves should be brought to court.”
@maryjones3523: “Dude… Kenya put cameras at home and electric fences. This is extreme poverty… so sorry.“
@leahgituku3035: “Good thing they didn’t kill anyone, he can buy another one, but sorry.”
@stivinimuguruki1769: “The one that went to us was Probox KCR, it went quietly… 2024 for us is Kirinyaga Kabonge.”
@davismaina543: “Techniques, strategies and a new style used by gangsters these days.”
@MaryMungai-jw1uc: “If you’re confused, you’re confused alone, don’t surprise your partner.”
@maryjones3523: “Maybe the next time you buy a car like that, put a high-quality siren that will alert the police, because it’s not a cheap car or an alarm that doesn’t stop going off. How come you have a car like that and then you don’t have an electric fence or even a gun?”
