Murkomen to Preside Over Destruction of Sh8.2 Billion Narcotics in Mombasa<\/strong><\/h3>\n
By Jeff Kizzilah Digital Editor<\/span><\/strong><\/pre>\n
 Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen is set to preside over the destruction of narcotics valued at approximately <\/span>Sh8.2 billion<\/strong> at the Bamburi Cement Factory in Mombasa.<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/blockquote>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n
The consignment, comprising more than 1,000 kilograms of methamphetamine<\/strong>, was seized by Kenya\u2019s multi-agency security team in the Indian Ocean last October as part of ongoing efforts to disrupt international drug trafficking networks.<\/p>\n
The destruction exercise is expected to underscore the government\u2019s commitment to combating drug trafficking and preventing illicit narcotics from reaching communities in Kenya and beyond.<\/p>\n
Security agencies have continued to strengthen multi-agency operations aimed at intercepting illegal drugs and other forms of transnational organised crime.<\/p>\n
The destruction of the seized narcotics marks another significant step in the enforcement of Kenya\u2019s laws against drug trafficking and the safe disposal of confiscated illicit substances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
