Ochieng’ admitted to stealing Anthony Munene Njeru’s underwear, subwoofer and a claw hammer, all valued at Sh4,900 and handling the stolen goods after breaking into his house at dawn.
He was spotted by a hawkeyed guard at the NYS headquarters who raised an alarm prompting colleagues to team up and arrest him.
Njeru was still asleep when Ochieng’ was being apprehended shortly before 5am and he was not aware that his house had been broken into as he slept.
The magistrate remembered having jailed Ochieng’ in 2016 for the same offence which he committed at the same place but at a different house when he was arraigned on Thursday last week.
