I once went to one, and they send me to a bureau which photocopied at ksh 15. The catch is that they advised me to pay by money order at kshs. 150, totalling to about kshs. 165. 
<div><br></div><div>The money order is then cancelled and the post master and the police station share the spoils.Been an &#39;industry insider&#39; in the busy town, I got the abstract photocopied for 5 bob , without need for a money order. </div>
<div><br></div><div>Went back to the police station, met a different guy who asked to see the money order, and I asked &quot;what moneyorder?&quot; . Anyway, he processed the abstract since i had it, </div><div><br></div>
<div>The anti-climax was that the lost documents were trapped between my bed sheet and mattress for one week that the bed was not &#39;fully formatted&#39;. </div><div><br></div><div>If you appear with the abstract and dont mention you had been there before, they assume you are aware of the process and avoid taking you round in circles</div>
