Police in Nairobi are holding a 47-year-old man accused of manufacturing and selling counterfeit drugs.
The suspect identified as Peter Cummings Thatia was arrested on Friday following a tip-off from members of the public.
He was nabbed in Hurlingham, Nairobi County during an operation carried out by detectives from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in collaboration with officers from the Pharmacy and Poisons Board.
Thatia is alleged to have been manufacturing and selling counterfeit Viagra to unsuspecting Kenyans in Hurlingham—a high-end neighborhood within Nairobi.
Counterfeit ViagraPro capsules, two polythene bags containing a white powdery substance, a capsule filler machine, and advertising fliers were seized from the suspect during the arrest.
A vehicle he was driving, a Nissan Note bearing registration number KCK 442A, was also impounded by detectives.
The suspect will be arraigned next week to face charges of unlawfully manufacturing and selling counterfeit medicines contrary to The Anti-Counterfeit Act No. 13 of 2008.

Congratulations DCI for arresting the want-to-be-rich quickly Viagra con artist.
I am thinking besides selling counterfeit Viagra to unsuspecting Kenyans in Hurlingham—a high-end neighborhood within Nairobi if on the hand he coached URITH Management Team to con innocent members of public by selling them non-existent lands / Plots.
Bwana DCI, please move expeditiously like you have on this Viagra con artist of a man and arrest all URITHI Management Team for swindling innocent Kenyan’s residing in Diaspora, and me being one of them swindled most (Millions). Also, have Kenya Sacco Regulatory Authority suspended URITHI operating anywhere in the Republic of Kenya as we continue to seek refunds from these URITHI Management Goons. I am leading a team to formalize a petition to the Foreign Governments to recall all their children attending schools abroad and also we’re requesting these foreign Governments to revoke all URITHI Management Team members their Visas World-Wide. They must never travel beyond Kamiti Prison Block-B and the women in the Management Team should be jailed at Langata Women’s Prison and be assigned to (Wira wa ndoo na kuhoria Uchuru) and deny them human rights for life.
