On Friday, February 23, a driver from Narok experienced a significant setback when he was relieved of Ksh75,400 and his white Toyota Probox while traveling to Olokirikirai Trading Centre.

As per a police document acquired by Kenyans.co.ke, at approximately 8:00 pm in Narok town, the driver provided a ride to two unfamiliar individuals who asked to be transported to Tipis.

Upon arriving at the trading center, it is said that the two men approached the driver and demanded him to hand over the keys to the car.

Armed with knives, the pair warned they would stab him unless he complied with their requests.

Yielding to their demands, the driver, who is 34 years old, handed over the keys and demonstrated a willingness to adhere to their additional requests.

The two individuals took charge of the car’s steering, moved the driver to the rear seat, bound him with a rope, and gagged him using a cloth.
