Peter Warutere: Man Accused of Conning Kenyans of Sh16.9 Million in Fake WHO Tender Arrested
A man accused of conning unsuspecting Kenyans of millions of shillings has been arrested.
Paul Mwangi Warutere was fished out of his hideout in Ngong by detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on Saturday.
Warutere is said to have swindled his victims by duping them into funding a non-existent container supply contract at Word Health Organization (WHO).
In the con scheme executed between July and August this year, Warutere allegedly received up to Sh16.9 million from his victims, according to the DCI.
The suspect has other pending cases in court, one of which he was charged at Milimani law courts for allegedly defrauding another victim of Sh13.7million.
Warutere is presently in police custody awaiting arraignment in court on Monday.

burning a thief does work in Nigeria! Just put a old tire around his neck and set him a blaze! We should do the same to the thieving politicians too - Waititu, Abado, kuria, Alice, didi, etc!
The stealing problem will be solved over night!! The courts have lost the effectiveness because they are made of thieves! Even Maraga now agrees the old traditional courts worked better than what we now have!!

Is this story about "Peter" or "Paul" Warutere? These are two different people, and the author of this article should check and use the right one.
