Five armed men broke into a Runda home belonging to former Lari Member of Parliament (MP) Mburu Kahangara on Saturday morning.
The five gangsters are alleged to have had enough time to eat a meal and drink a bottle of wine inside the house.
The gangsters, who were armed with three pistols and other crude weapons gained entry into the former lawmaker’s home at around 1 am as he arrived home accompanied by his wife.
The former MP, affiliated to the Jubilee Party, made news in 2013 after being arrested for assaulting a traffic police officer at the Globe Cinema interchange.

According to Mr Mburu, the thieves terrorised them for about three hours as they ransacked the house before making away with cash, mobile phones, electronics, clothes and jewelry.
They also took the former MP’s firearm that was hidden in a safe together with two magazines that were loaded with ammunition.
The robbers went into the kitchen where they ate Chapati which had been prepared by the family and also drunk a full bottle of wine which they found in the couple’s bedroom.
Mr Mburu stated that the gang had accessed his residence after cleverly creating a space through the compound’s electric fence.
During the incident, Mr Mburu’s wife Monica suffered bruises on the face as she attempted to shield her husband from being stabbed by the thieves.
After the gang had left, Mr Mburu reported the incident at Kiambu Police Station.
