Two arrested over counterfeit juice processing in Kabete

During the crackdown, detectives recovered approximately 1,400 filled 200ml and 300ml bottles of suspected counterfeit juice, 56 cartons of empty bottles, five packets of bottle tops, two blue drums and three assorted-colour basins.

The two suspects, identified as Alex Mwaruta and James Munala Inyangala, were busted while in the middle of producing counterfeit juice following a whistle-blow by a member of the public.

They also found office glue, rubber stamps and ink, assorted stickers, an expired certificate authorising the use of the Standardisation Mark for a well-known juice brand and assorted powdery and colourless substances packed in polythene bags in 50-gram portions and in 200ml and 300ml bottles.

The items were secured as exhibits after being processed by detectives from the Crime Scene Investigation (CSI).
