The state of insecurity in Malls, hospitals and other public places is appaling, many Kenyans can attest.
Most Kenyans that visit malls usually see the mediocre searches that are carried out by the poorly remunerated security companies personnel employed to ensure criminals and terrorists don’t access these facilities.
Usually, they search for cars using their eyes!
Well, must a mall or hotel be attacked by Al Shabaab in order for them to get serious? Personally, I don’t have a problem being searched by security officials for more than five minutes if that will nab some bad guys.
Well, this is not the first time we are being told that thugs are breaking into cars at Mpshah hospital. Usually, these thugs are attracted by cars whose owners leave valuables like phones and laptops. Galleria Mall on Langata road used to be notorious but the cases have declined after many people’s vehicles were broken into.
Yesterday at around 5, a thief took advantage of Kenyans that had gone to visit their sick loved ones and broke into their cars but one of them was nabbed. They were one lady and two gentlemen ,one of them was caught through assistance of members of public as he was running away
This is just an alert to Kenyans that your car and valuables are not safe in your car at the car parking so don’t entice the thief.
Always do this
1. Never leave your parking card in your car. A thief can break in and escape with your car. Keys can be forged!
2. Don’t leave valuables like laptops and phones in your car since they attract these crooks. If you have to leave them in your car ensure they are not visible.
