Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) were on Saturday, October 22, puzzled by a 23-year-old youth who manufactured a gun from scratch.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the authorities noted that the gun was capable of firing and had a live bullet by the time they nabbed the youth, John Kimani Muchina.<\/p>\n

Built to mimic the slick design of a typical pistol, the homemade gun was made out of everyday metals and has a rusted exterior.<\/p>\n

The police nabbed Muchina after getting a tip-off from the public regarding questionable business that happens inside his house in Kayole.<\/p>\n

The team then raided the house at around 11am.<\/p>\n

“His apprehension materialized after police officers got wind of a man acting suspiciously. It was while on their usual patrol within Kayole’s Maana area that the Njiiru-based officers received information regarding a house frequented by suspicious characters. In the dramatic 11am incident, the sleuths immediately swung into action and raided the house, busting the suspect off guard.<\/p>\n

“John Kimani Muchina, 23, was apprehended and a quick but detailed search conducted in the premises,” read the statement in part.<\/p>\n

The homemade gun was recovered alongside a motorcycle make boxer, six pocket phones, vehicle and motorcycle ignition keys.<\/p>\n

Other stolen property founder were an insurance certificate sticker, mobile phone accessories, five empty wallets, a gas mask and three waist porches.<\/p>\n

Muchina was taken into police custody awaiting his arraignment in court on Monday, October 24.<\/p>\n

In July 2021, another Kenyan was arrested in Homa Bay County for producing homemade fire arms which included pistols and a G3 rifle.<\/p>\n

Solomon Otieno Ojwang’, 32, was arrested in a joint operation carried out by officers from Sori police post and Assistant chief’s office of Kasewe B Sub-location.<\/p>\n

The guns included two pistols and another one resembling a G3-rifle. Additionally, three live rounds of ammunition were at the scene.<\/p>\n
