[Meria]

Earlier today, a team of Digital Forensic Experts and Serious Crime Unit detectives working on intelligence raided an office in Ngara within Nairobi County.

Upon gaining entry, the team found two suspected hackers actively on NTSA database and TIMS system. The officers managed to arrest the two suspects namely Michael Onyango Oduor aged 54, Sylvester Onyango - 30 years and recovered the following: Ksh1,188,000, USD 100, three motor vehicles and fiber laser cutting machine that they were using to cut number plates. Also recovered was a compressor machine that was being used for painting number plates, one complete number plate, five desktop computers, laptops, logbooks, modems, hard drives and flash drives.

Further investigations led the officers to NTSA offices where they arrested one employee namely Antony Rugut Korir - 33 years in the call center department, who was assisting the hackers to access the NTSA network. Korir had connected a Local Area Network turtle gadget; a covert sytem administration and pentesting tool providing stealth remote access.
All the suspects are in lawful custody as further Investigations ensue.

Whistleblowing. This Kiwanja is advancing. The govt is trying on the catch up.

Downtown Nairobi the only thing that can't be counterfeited as the saying goes is only the soul of a human being.
Anything else with the right price and connections utapata.

Why so many modems?

The government has dragged its feet on modernizing, so let them deal with the consequences.
In other news, the effort to pursue illegal activities, could have been put in some legal hustle.
Goes to show you our society dwells alot and thrives on illegal activities.

Why so many modems?

If they were processing plates faster/more efficiently than NTSA then shut down NTSA and let these guys take over.

 

[Nattydread]

Why so many modems?

I think the most are flash drives.

 

[Denis Young]

Hehe... Hii ilikuwa biz moto sana. Who were they supplying the plates too? Old vehicles brought in through our neighbors? Stolen vehicles?

Michael Onyango Oduor aged 54, and Sylvester Onyango aged 30 and Antony Rugut Korir, were found manipulating the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) database to register cars in what appears to be a multi-million shilling scam.
