A fire broke out at a garage on Muthangari Drive in Nairobi, destroying three vehicles and partially damaging another on Tuesday evening, September 29, 2026. Harsharan Singh Dadiahla, the owner of Just Relaxsingh Ltd Garage, reported the incident around 10:21pm. Police, DCI officers, Scene of Crime personnel from Dagoretti, and firefighters from the Nairobi Central Business District responded to the scene and managed to extinguish the blaze.
Three vehicles - a blue Mercedes Benz, a green Jeep Open, and a Jeep Grand Cherokee - were completely destroyed, while a fourth vehicle, a Mercedes 108, sustained damage to its left rear section. No injuries or fatalities were reported. Police are now investigating the cause of the fire and assessing the damage. In unrelated news, police in Vihiga County recovered 119.05kg of cannabis sativa, valued at approximately Sh3.57 million.
The narcotics were seized on September 18, 2026, following a tip-off that led to the visit of senior security officials to the DCI Sabatia offices. Five sacks containing the suspected cannabis were recovered, all allegedly found inside a black Toyota Prado with three flat tires. The officers responsible for the recovery had allegedly detained the narcotics on September 13, 2026, but failed to report the incident in the Occurrence Book or through a situation report. The circumstances surrounding this lapse in reporting are currently under investigation.
