Police in Narok town have launched investigations into an incident where a wheat farmer was reportedly robbed of KES 2.5 million by commercial sex workers on Tuesday.
County commissioner Arthur Osiya said the sex workers disappeared leaving the victim farmer regretting over the loss of his hard-earned cash.
Osiya said the victim had decided to take a few drinks after the sale of a wheat harvest.
“The farmer entered the bar alone at around 8pm and after taking few beers he started bragging that he has a lot of money after selling wheat. That attracted attentions of prostitutes who have invaded the town to reap from wheat farmers. He woke up the following morning after he was drugged by the twilight girls only to realize that all the proceeds from the wheat harvest have gone,” said Osiya.
“We are on high alert as all manner of criminals, conmen, robbers and prostitutes out to swindle the wheat farmers. We are calling on our farmers to be extra vigilant of such characters,” added Osiya.
The County Commissioner raised concern over high rate of alcohol abuse attributed to the high amount of money in circulation saying that some entertainment joints in town where operating out of the stipulated time.
