Popular CS's bodyguard loses firearm after drinking spree

A police officer attached to a Cabinet Secretary has been arrested after he lost his gun in unclear circumstances in Nairobi’s Uhuru Camp area.

The officer told his seniors he had been at a local bar in Highrise after his duties but when he reached his residence he found the Ceska pistol with 12 bullets missing.

A search was conducted in the area in vain. He was later arrested and is set to appear in court this morning to face charges of failing to secure his weapon.

Last week, a senior officer in the city lost his weapon in Utawala area and no arrest or recovery has been made.
