Nairobi, April 10 (Jonglei Times)-A Kenyan suspect who left the country after
being linked to a Sh22 million heroin haul that was destroyed in the
high seas in 2014 has been arrested.
Police
on Monday locked up Ndechumia Bilali Kimali soon after he touched down
at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport in Nairobi from Madagascar.
In

heroin that were blown up in the Indian Ocean on August 14, 2014.
