DCI's Manhunt for Spy Queen Jane Mugo Backfires

The warrant of arrest issued against private investigator Jane Wawira Mugo was lifted by a Nairobi court. 

Citizen Digital, on Saturday, September 14, reported that Principal Magistrate Francis Andayi saved Jane from a manhunt that had been ordered for the CEO of Trimo Security. 

She was however ordered to appear in court on September 18. 

Ms Mugo is expected to take a plea on charges of robbery with violence, impersonation and threatening to kill.

The squashed arrest warrant had been issued from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on September 11.

She protested the hunt for her, citing that the DCI had not made any efforts to contact her before going public with the arrest warrant. 

She blamed her current predicament on another case she says she is following up on, touching on senior government officials.

“How I wish that they called me to a police station and I refused to go, and then booked me so that they can be able to say I am a criminal and that I have refused to come.

“The people who called me are six police officers who told me that they are being threatened because of this case… if the government wants me, why do it on air? 

“They only want three things, to spoil my name, want me to be viewed as a criminal and to intimidate me, because of the story that is going to air on a certain media house," she spoke on Citizen TV on Thursday.
