A Nairobi traffic policeman has been fined Sh1 million and one year in jail in default for obtaining a bribe of Sh5,250 from PSV operators.

Dan Mburu was fined Sh500,000 for the offence and for abuse of office when he appeared before chief magistrate Douglas Ogoti of the Anti-corruption court.

Mburu was based under the sub traffic base at the Makongeni police station and obtained the cash at Muthurwa.
