Friday,
October 18, 2024 – Detectives drawn from DCI Nairobi Regional Headquarters have
achieved a significant breakthrough in the fight against fraud with the
apprehension of Brian Reeves Obare who is implicated in a scheme that siphoned
millions of shillings from the pockets of unsuspecting Kenyans
Obare’s arrest took
place in Ongata Rongai town, a culmination of efforts sparked by a formal
complaint lodged by one of his victims on August 19, 2024.
The investigation
gained momentum following a further detailed report captured in another letter
dated October 8, 2024.
According to the
allegations, Obare colluded with accomplices to lure victims with false
promises of employment opportunities in Canada, assuring them of assistance
with necessary documentation.
Tragically, these
assurances were nothing more than empty words, leaving many individuals in
severe financial hardships.
Now in custody, Obare
is undergoing the final stages of processing as he prepares for his arraignment
in court where he will be charged with conspiracy to defraud and obtaining
money by false pretenses.
This case stands as a
stark reminder of the vital importance of vigilance within our neighborhoods
where such individuals lurk in the darkness waiting to pounce.
As we continue to
pursue justice for the victims, we urge everyone to remain cautious of offers
that seem too good to be true as such schemes often lead to heartbreaking
consequences.
