Two Chinese nationals were on Friday, August 16, arrested at the Green Park Estate in Athi River brewing illicit liquor.

The two, Wang Yalan and Wang Haijian, were smoked out of their rented residence by DCI detectives based in Machakos County.

Over 3, 000 litres of chang’aa and busaa was found stored in different containers.

“A liquor processing plant was also found in their homestead,” the DCI said on Twitter.

“A search within the suspects’ residence also led to the discovery of several sacks of sorghum and rice. Also found were drums of sorghum mixtures kept to ferment and several huge tanks. The two are in custody and recoveries secured as exhibits,” said the DCI.
