Looks like this issue evolved and the hoodlums are turning to more lethal approaches to contain the victims.

Theft in the public transit systems might be considered "petty" but if a blind eye is turned to petty theft, then the tactics used might get ugly.

Hello All
Just thought i would highlight my plight.I had heard of this but i never
thought it could happen to me.
A few days ago i boarded a bus heading back to town from Mombasa road.
I had my bag with my laptop inside.
Everything was fine until the moment i received a phone call from my boss
and we began talking.The conversation continued for quite some time.
Little did i know that some two four guys(i assume they were four in total)
i was seated at the window and two guys came and sat next to me.
i didnt think much of it at the time.

As we reached GPO one of them behind me dropped some coins and asked me to
pick it up for him.I think that was when they opened the bag and got
it.not really sure.On a serious note,i dont know how these guys were that
good..
By the time i screamed..they had confronted me and i was down.
What really pissed me off is Nairobians can see a lady on a bus being
mugged and do nothing about it.They just watch.

These thieves are very dangerous and they can get physical.
Please be aware

Regards
Cynthia.
