Investigators from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations at the Nairobi Regional Headquarters have arrested Daniel Mbugua Njogu, commonly referred to as Dan, at his home in the Kimbo vicinity.
The 30-year-old Mr. Njogu faces allegations of defrauding multiple victims by presenting himself as a forex trading expert.
His arrest comes after an extensive investigation into fraudulent activities that misled and exploited members of the public seeking financial gains through forex investments.
According to the Directorate of Criminal Investigations the arrest of Mr. Njogu confirms the DCI’s commitment to tackle financial crimes and protect citizens from fraudulent schemes.
“Individuals who may have been deceived by Njogu’s actions or who may have lost money are urged to come forward and report their cases at the DCI’s Nairobi area offices,” noted the DCI.
As financial fraud remains a significant risk, members of the public are strongly advised to exercise caution when engaging in forex trading or any other online investment activities.
“It is crucial to verify the legitimacy of brokers and trading platforms before entrusting them with any amount of money,” the DCI advised.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations has advised members of the public to be wary of offers that seem too good to be true and ensure that all investments are made through licensed and regulated entities.
The public is also advised to report similar cases to the DCI through “FichuakwaDCI 0800722203.”
