Retired Manager Arrested Over Doctors Park Bomb Scare
A former manager at Doctors Park, which was last week screened by officers from the DCI Bomb Disposal Unit and Anti-Terrorism Police Unit (ATPU) for explosives, has been arrested.
This follows a bomb scare after a note was found in the building located along 3rd Parklands Avenue in Nairobi.
The suspect is being held by police on suspicion of drafting the note which claimed that a bomb had been planted in the building.
Ms Meera Dinesh Patel was arrested on Sunday by ATPU detectives following a hunt that started on Thursday, the same day the note was found.
Witnesses said the suspect had been spotted at the building around the same time that the note was sighted.
The note was found by tenants at the main entrance to the toilets on the fifth floor.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations corroborated this evidence with the building’s CCTV footage obtained earlier that placed the suspect at the center of investigations.
