Detectives from Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) on Wednesday night seized one million fake United States dollars at a Nairobi nightclub.
The counterfeit American currency was impounded after DCI officers raided Plan 254 Club on Nyangumi Road in Nairobi’s Kilimani area.
147 bars of fake gold, 3,000 black notes of US dollars and four locked portable safes were also seized during the operation. The black notes were in denominations of $100.
Flamboyant Kenyan businessman Stephen Mark Oduk, who is the owner of the entertainment joint, was arrested during the raid and is set to be arraigned in court on Thursday.
Oduk, also known as Lucas Mbadi, has a number of cases in court related to dealing with fake gold and money laundering, reported Nairobi News.
DCI said the operation was conducted following a tip-off from members of the public.
Early this month, police arrested a Kenyan man with fake currencies worth Sh200million in Kileleshwa, Nairobi. 27-year-old Bobby Kariuki was found with fake US dollars, Euros and Pounds.
