Two men have been arrested after detectives raided a suspected counterfeit juice production site in Muthua, Kabete.
The operation followed a tip-off from a member of the public, leading officers from Kabete Police Station to a homestead where the suspected production was taking place.
The suspects, identified as Alex Mwaruta and James Munala Inyangala, were arrested at the scene.
Detectives recovered about 1,400 bottles of suspected counterfeit juice packed in 200ml and 300ml bottles and also found 56 cartons of empty bottles, five packets of bottle tops, two blue drums and three basins.
Other items recovered included office glue, rubber stamps, ink and various stickers. Detectives also found an expired certificate authorizing the use of the Standardisation Mark for a known juice brand.
Several unidentified powdery and colorless substances were also recovered in 50-gram portions and in 200ml and 300ml bottles.
Crime Scene Investigation officers processed the scene, while the recovered items were taken as exhibits.
The two suspects remain in custody as detectives continue with investigations into the alleged counterfeit juice operation.
