A former senator is nursing serious injuries after he was allegedly attacked by thugs at the Globe Cinema roundabout last night.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI), the undisclosed former legislator represented a coastal county between 2017-2022.
He was walking to his rented room in Ngara from Kirinyaga road where he had gone to buy a shirt before muggers attacked him and stole his valuables.
“The thugs who assaulted him before they took away his mobile phone and other valuables disappeared shortly thereafter towards Nairobi river leaving the Senator to his own devices,” DCI stated.
He was rescued by police officers based at Parklands police station who were out on patrol during the incident.
“Police officers based at Parklands police station who were out on patrol spotted the badly injured man who had managed to walk to the Fig Tree – Kipande road junction and rushed to his aid,” DCI stated.
