@ Mcreggae, @ king, a partner in this case involves a lady. I wish not to comment futher.

@githundi,

pole Sana for the ordeal...
i have been car jacked Twice (both in a mat and Ngong road) luckily no one was seriously injured....and it is traumatizing,First you are haunted by your ringtone(unaskia simu ikilia na ata that moment hauja replace simcard)
They say time heals but to some extent no,when using a mat i ALWAYS consider who is seated at the front,akikaa mwizi mwizi i move on to the next one so i end up wasting a lot of time nikichakuga mat,secondly i rarely use a matatu past 9pm(90% of the time am always in my hood/house by 7pm latest).

Do not down play the police,my Pal was jacked last weekend and she recovered the vehicle through the assistance of the cops.

I'm very sorry about this. Not to you githundi but to the lady.

I can't imagine why you keep on yapping about that car all the time.Let it rot and be done with it. Infact, if I were you, I'd ask the cops not to find it, ever.

The lady is traumatised and you should be more concerned about her welfare. At first after seeing your post, I thought how sad. But every post you've been mentioning that bloody car.

Let it go. Help the lady out as you can't ever insure or replace what she's going through. Especially since it's your fault for getting out of your car in the first place.

This story is heartrending. Pole Githundi. But take more time to help your lady recover first. Hiyo ya gari wachia polisi and your insurance and don't worry about attachment to the car, you will always get another or can use matatus so long as you are alive and unmaimed. And yours is also a lesson for those who think they drive 'untheftworthy' cars because I thought Miras are quite conspicous being unpopular in Kenya. We once used that bypass in a company car and I swore never to ever use it again because it bore the hallmarks of the perfect crime trap.

@kamurigo, in a matatu especially the 14 seaters, its usually more than one thug. One at the front, the second at the second row seat usually next to the tout or right behind the driver and the third somewhere in the back seat. Hard part is you may never tell because one of them may even be a woman yet we are always looking out for the man in jeans, safari boots, leather jacket and a kofia. It is advisable to avoid late night travel in these matatus especially during the first and last weeks of the month but again do you stop living for fear of being jacked?

What I wonder is why they rape even after taking all material things from you.

@Alma, for what its worth, that's extremely careless of you!! What are you implying, that the Githundi got out of the car for him to have his 'partner' raped and the car stolen??? I know you look at things with a 3D view but on this one you're wrong and i wish you'd apologize to Githundi...

btw, this is the kind of a statement that can drive someone into depression and eventually suicide.. If possible edit that post or delete it!!!!
