Two suspected thieves were shot dead on Friday night after they raided a shop owned by policeman in Likoni, Mombasa county. The shop is owned by police officer attached to Mombasa county DCI office. Machete-wilding gangs continue to reign terror in parts of Mombasa even though police maintain patrols have been heightened. Last month, a boda boda rider sustained severe cuts his head and hand by suspected gang members in Liwatoni area. Likoni police boss Jectone Opengo admitted presence of deadly gangs saying some have been arrested and charged.
