A contingent of Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) officers and the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on Wednesday intercepted two tanker trucks each carrying 17,766 litres and 23,205 litres which had been concealed as imported molasses from Uganda.

Edward Nandwa Otundo, who was one of the tanker drivers, was nabbed as his accomplices fled.
