An 18-year-old woman, Christine Njoki Gitau, was arrested at Ruai Police Station, Nairobi, on September 15, 2026, after police found pliers and shears hidden in food she brought for three remanded suspects. The three men, Emmanuel Bosire, Brian Gatheru Nderitu, and Ismail Bosire Oilio, are accused of capital offenses like robbery with violence and gang rape.
Christine arrived at the station around 4 p.m., intending to visit the suspects. They are held for operating a TikTok page to lure young women, gang-rape them, and rob them. The jailbreak-in-waiting was thwarted by the cell sentry's sharp instincts. Christine was arrested immediately, and her food was inspected, revealing the concealed tools.
Police are now investigating the circumstances of the attempted delivery and whether it was meant to help the remandees escape.
