I caught one of them last year.

Lets just say he wouldn't be going back to that habit. unless he has healed by now.

Get someone to install cctv cameras in these matatus and expose the bad guys on TV. That will be the end of it.

Cynthia this is so sad to hear. This is the very very thing that happened to me almost a year ago between UON roundabout and westlands roundabout. I had a nasty punch up with them before getting my laptop back and  to my rescue the cops came around and they were taken to Kileleshwa police station.

We need plain clothed cops to operate on these routes and help save unsuspecting passengers.

Thanks for sharing.

Subject: [Skunkworks] OT:THIEVES ON THIKA ROAD MATATUS

Hello All
Today i had a nasty experience.
Boarded a PSV vehicle on Thika road heading to town.Had my bag which
contained
my laptop.
Then some 5 guys entered the vehicle,as they entered,they were squeezing
each other to get in,little did i know that they had succeeded in opening
my bag and had almost knicked my laptop before i got them red-handed and
one of them dropped it then started saying that "ilikuwa imeanguka"
I decided to alight the matatu at the next stage,then they also decided to
alight.i waited for them to alight then i just told the conductor to go
ahead
all the way to town.
when i reach town,i saw the same same guys alighting from another vehicle
and they had knicked something from someone and he was chasing one of
them.i did not know if the person managed to get them.
The trick they use is this.They enter a vehicle,and then they start saying
ati kuna operation ya polisi,they wait for people to move and check if
there valuables are ok,then they will try to move around while trying
opening unsuspecting people bags.
I believe they operate on Thika road mostly.

People beware! and take care of your valuables.I am told that this is a
common trend on Thika road.who knows where else it may be heading to.
Just wanted to inform my fellow people to be aware of such tricks.

Regards
Cynthia
