Two women who were rescued by police from a lynch mob after they were cornered at a club in Githura 44, Nairobi, just after allegedly drugging a man they wanted to steal from, have been charged with drugging to commit an offence, contrary to Section 230 of the Penal Code.

They suspects, Jennifer Wanjiku Kamau, 45, and 37-year-old Lydia Waithera Maina, are accused of administering an unknown stupefying or overpowering drug to Peter Swakei at a club on July 1.
