A 45-year-old Jane Miano who is a trader at Makutano market was on Monday conned Ksh 200,000.
Miano is said to have headed to Makutano market which is 5 kilometers away from Ngurubani when she was offered a lift by a driver in a private car.
Overjoyed at her luck, she hopped into the car which set off towards Makutano; she knew she would take less than 30 minutes to and from the market.
The car had three other occupants; two women who were very eager to engage the Ms. Miano in a hearty conversation.
Soon after, the driver stopped outside a local supermarket and gave Ms. Miano Ksh.100 to grab a bottle of water.
Since the car’s occupants appeared very friendly, she hopped off and sauntered to the supermarket, leaving her purse inside the car
It was after she left the supermarket that she realized that the car had driven off, taking away her bag which had Ksh.200,000 and personal documents
Ndia Police Commander Joseph Mwika said the three suspects; Benson Waigwa Macharia 38,Mercy mukami,29, and Caroline Wanjiru,20, are all from Makongeni in Thika.
