Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have arrested an Italian national in connection with running a drug lab.
In a statement by the DCI on Monday morning, it was revealed that the 37-year-old was arrested alongside a Kenyan after days of secret surveillance in Mwabungo village in Ukunda.
Reportedly, detectives from the Anti-Narcotics Unit and the Kenya police carried out a raid at a one-acre gated property in a secluded area, discovering the property.
In photos shared by DCI, the high-end property, secured with high brick walls and a seemingly heavily guarded gate, was shown, behind which chemicals used in narcotics manufacturing were found.
