Police have raided the home of prominent businessman Jimmy Wanjigi at Muthaiga in Nairobi.
The raid by officers from the Special Crimes Prevention unit happened hours after a similar incident in another house allegedly owned by Wanjigi in Malindi.
Police officers in Malindi led by OCPD Matawa Muchangi recovered five AK 47s, 93 rounds of ammunition and a tortoise shell from the house belonging to two Italians.
Four people were arrested and later revealed they had been employed by Wanjigi to take care of the premise.
