Two men were last evening arrested for personating as DCI officers and attempting to extort MP Charles Ongondo.

The two, Dennis Muturi Nyakundi and Victor Onsare were arrested at a Hotel in Nairobi after summoning the MP through social media with a forged compelling Notice to present himself at DCI HQs for questioning on an undisclosed matter.

The Legislator later received a call from a private number rescheduling his appearance at DCI offices to a later date but required that they meet at the hotel for a talk.

On being suspicious of the inconsistent events, the MP reported to DCI Parliament where a trap was set and the two suspects nabbed.

They are set to take plea.
