The latest of such attacks happened at Mimosa Grove estate in Runda on Thursday night last week when three men armed with improvised explosives – a bicycle wire and match stick phosphorus broke into the house of Margaret Kamene Matheka, an auditor with the Education Ministry. They stole two mobile phones and a Toyota Rav 4.

On Tuesday of the same week, Felister Muli, who works at the Ministry of Public Works, was waylaid by four thugs – two armed with pistols outside her house in Tabere Crescent in Kileleshwa.

She was robbed of Sh24,000, an iPhone and forced to reveal her ATM and M-Pesa PINs where they withdrew Sh20,000 from each of the account in the 10 pm incident. The thugs then abandoned her along Rhapta Road and drove off in her Toyota Prado.

Last Monday, seven thugs armed with an AK-47 rifle and a pistol stole household goods worth Sh805,000 from Dr Saaio Mauro’s house in Miotoni Ridge in Karen. They also stole Sh9,000, $300 (Sh25,500) and €600 Euros (Sh70,800).

The same night, four thugs shot and critically injured a guard at Saminaa Mohammed’s home in Karen during a 1 am robbery incident. They stole Sh1,000, six mobile phones and jewellery.

February 8 appears to have been the busiest for the thieves. At 4.45 am, six men armed with crude weapons cut through the kai-apple fence of Briton Jim Cheatle’s homestead in Runda Estate but did not steal anything after the alarm went off.

Earlier that night, three men, also armed with crude weapons, raided the home of Mr Pierre Parson at Pepo Lane in Karen at 3.10 am and stole a CPU, two wedding rings and a phone. They injured one of the guests on their way out.

At 1 am, businessman Alfayaz Sundaji was ambushed in his Range Rover just after the security guard opened the gate to his Royal Park home on Rhapta Road.

The gang ransacked his house and stole Sh350,000, $4,000 (Sh340,000), two iPads, a laptop and a log book.

The previous night, Fardorisa Yusuf had been blocked from behind outside her home on Githunguri Road in Kileleshwa by two armed men in a saloon car, who drove off in her car.

As a victim of a violent robbery i can attest there is nothing you can do if you're not equally armed. When thugs attack your house you are on your own until they decide to leave. Your neighbours will cower in their houses and pray they don't come to their houses. The cops will wait until they leave to share in the loot. The estate security watchmen who are probably in cohorts or your part of the gang will blow whistles aimlessly to scare and distract would be rescuers and are in constant communication will the gang. Let me tell you this robberies are not planned on the whim. These are long term plans with intelligence gathering i.e some guys assigned to monitor you or your activities and your business and family. These guys can be part of your family i.e children spouse brother etc who can either ardently or inadvertently leak out sensitive personal information, gardeners, house girls, Fundis who leak reconstruction plans and weaknesses. Then there is a safe house who is your neighbour which is unbelievable but true to hide the thugs and stolen loot as you go around looking for the thugs. But the worst are the cops the level of evidence gathering is non existent. The questions they ask are what was stolen period. let me say never underate those watchies fundis house girls boda boda operators the information they have is unbelievable and deep they know everything and who does what and what is going to happen. how is this possible? cause they live in the same neighbourhood "slums" have the same "code" and probably grew up together and this is what probably their parents did for a living.
what can save you is to own a weapon that can overpower these guys, our ancestors didn't carry weapons around and sleep outside guarding their families and granaries for the fun of it. We should legalize the right to own guns and equalize any encounter we might have with the enemy.

Which one is that @Sanity. Do you have it?
