The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has uncovered a syndicate of individuals fraudulently posing as EACC officers.
The arrests were made in South Nyanza region, culminating in search operations by the EACC.
In a statement released on Wednesday, August 27, 2025, the commission revealed that the coordinated effort had targeted seven individuals believed to be involved in an elaborate scheme to extort money from members of the public by falsely presenting themselves as anti-corruption officials.
During the raid, the commission also recovered a variety of forged materials, including fake EACC job cards, official letterheads, rubber stamps and other documents typically used by commission officials during legitimate operations.
The suspects were taken into custody.
