On Monday, residents of Ngecha village in Limuru sub-county, Kiambu, demonstrated over the emergence of the Gaza gang whose members are said to target matatu operators.

The gang, whose roots can be traced to Dandora and Kayole slums in Nairobi has been linked to several criminals activities in Eastlands.

Sources indicate the gang is running away from the famous no-nonsense Hessy wa Kayole and Saigon Purnisher, who are best known for intelligence investigation and eliminating criminals.

The two use Facebook posts to pass warning messages to gangsters, asking them to reform or risk being eliminated.

The Gaza gang is now said to be looking for other areas where they will not be trailed by the 'faceless officers' based in Nairobi. 

Limuru residents have raised alarm over the emergence of the gang that has been terrorising them for over a month.

Jehoshaphat Kinuthia, a matatu operator in Limuru was on Sunday stabbed in the left eye after he resisted a robbery by the group.

The residents now want the police to restore calm in the area by heightening security and arresting the gang members.

The gang has been reported to use beautiful women to lure young boys into the criminal outfit.
