By COLLINS OMULOMore by this AuthorSeven people were Monday arrested in a swoop by the Energy and Petroleum Regulatory Authority (EPRA) over fuel adulteration. The suspects were arrested at an illegal site on Lunga Lunga Road in Industrial Area, Nairobi where the energy regulatory agency discovered over 6,500 litres of petroleum products. He said that the seven have been taken to Muthaiga and Industrial Area police stations and will be arraigned for engaging in an illegal activity. He said that Industrial Area is notorious for such activities which has seen over 20 sites closed down by the authority this year alone. However, he said that loss due to fuel adulteration has reduced by 60 percent saving the country around Sh10 billion every year.
