A security operation in Ruring’u, Nyeri, targeted unlicensed liquor businesses on Thursday evening, resulting in the closure of multiple bars. The bars were reportedly operated by a businessman also suspected of manufacturing counterfeit alcohol. Nyeri Central Deputy County Commissioner Ngunyi Maina led the multi-agency effort, which included national and county government enforcement officers. The operation aimed to curb the sale of illegal and potentially dangerous alcoholic beverages in the region. Authorities are investigating the businessman’s activities related to the counterfeit alcohol production. This crackdown represents a broader effort to enforce regulations and protect public health in Nyeri. Further action is anticipated as the investigation progresses.
