Kenyan men puzzled as police arrest beautiful lady
Elsewhere, Kenyan men camped on the Directorate of Criminal Investigations Facebook page to give varying views after a 21-year-old lady was arrested over kidnapping and robbery.
Grace Akinyi, born in 2002, was arrested as part of the gang that kidnapped and robbed an Australian man and his Ugandan wife in a fake gold scam deal.
Akinyi caught the attention of many Kenyans, as many could not believe that she was already involved in crime at a young age.
Her beauty also warmed the hearts of some Kenyan men who hilariously asked the DCI to be lenient on her as she was a beautiful young lady.
