A shocking incident unfolded when a Kenyan doctor fell victim to a bewildering act upon her return to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) from India.

She was robbed of over Ksh100,000 and her personal belongings. At 9:00 am, the doctor who had journeyed abroad to pursue her education reached Kenya and patiently awaited her flight to Kisumu. Before embarking, she decided to convert her Indian rupee into the local Kenyan currency. During this currency exchange, an unfamiliar individual, donning a face mask and cap, approached her and extended a greeting.

The next thing she knew, she had passed out. Hours later, she regained consciousness in Narok town, disoriented and finding herself lying on the road close to Olentimama Stadium. Tragically, she realized that she had been stripped of Ksh100,000 in cash and possessions valued at around Ksh150,000. Concerned individuals gathered around, their intentions focused on determining her identity and reaching out to her family.

Upon receiving the report, the incident was promptly brought to the attention of the local authorities who wasted no time in dispatching officers from Narok Police Station. With utmost urgency, the victim was swiftly transported to Narok County Referral Hospital for immediate medical attention. In their relentless pursuit of justice, detectives have taken the initiative to launch a comprehensive investigation aimed at uncovering the identity of the male perpetrator responsible for both the assault on the doctor and the subsequent robbery.
