Baracuda Airways CEO John Majiwa awaits being charged in court today Monday after he was arrested for allegedly conning his clients of over Sh200 million.
The CEO was arrested by flying squad officers on Saturday within the Nairobi CBD as he headed to the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
Police say Majiwa was on flight from the country after he had been exposed for the alleged fraud.
They said he had escaped their dragnet since Wednesday after the matter was first brought to them.
However, police tracked his movements for two days before he was eventually arrested alongside a man and four women said to be his accomplices.
They were then taken to the flying squad headquarters in Kilimani where they recorded statements before they were taken to cells pending mention of their cases today.
Those arrested include Director of BOD Elizabeth Wanjiru and an officer in the presidential escort, Stella Amaya, the company's Finance director.
