Two burglars broke into the Nairobi residence of Chief cabinet secretary Musalia Mudavadi and stole a 40-inch tv set and a gas cylinder.
According to a police report, the duo invaded the property after they jumped over the perimeter wall on Sunday, January 29, 2023.
At the time, the CS and his wife were not at home.
They covered one of the CCTV cameras with a plastic object to conceal their identity and accessed the rooms where they stole the property mentioned above before escaping.
"After review of CCTV footage, it was established that two male strangers gained entry into the compound by jumping over the perimeter wall between 1630 hrs and 1700hrs where one of them covered one of the CCTV cameras with a plastic object in order to hide their identity,” the statement reads.
“They then accessed some rooms at the compound and stole the property before escaping,” the report added.
His son Moses was in a separate room when the incident occurred. He was alerted by the househelp who informed him that one of the tv sets and the gas cylinders were missing.
At this point, he called the police who responded swiftly. The officers who arrived at the scene established that the burglars quickly made their way because the electric fence at the compound was not functioning at the time of the incident.
They also revealed that the rooms had not been attended to for a while.
