Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) have called on Kenyans allegedly conned by a fraudulent Nairobi-based real estate company owner to file their complaints at the DCI headquarters.
The plea followed a complaint filed at the DCI headquarters in December last year, in which the real estate company owner was accused of soliciting Ksh6.4 million from a complainant.
According to DCI officers, the company owner received the money on the promise that he would construct a house for the complainant as part of the Oakside Phase 2 project in the Syokimau area of Mavoko Municipality, Machakos County.
Following the complaint, investigators from the Economic and Commercial Crimes Unit launched a probe and established that the company owner had indeed entered into a contractual agreement with the complainant for the house construction.
