The Kiruki commission Wednesday heard how one of the two alleged
Armenian brothers assaulted a senior customs official and drew guns
to scare away a surging crowd at the Jomo Kenyatta international
airport earlier this month.
Charles Nambale told the commission that Artur Margaryan was enraged
when he insisted on retaining the baggage belonging to a passenger
Margaryan was meeting for duty verification on the goods.
He also narrated how Margryan attempted to grab his airport security
badge from him. Margrayan allegedly punched Mr. Nambale as the customs
official wrested back the badge, in the ensuing commotion.
Margaryan let go off the badge, taking off from the baggage hall exit
towards the parking lot.
The officer says he is still under medication following the injuries
sustained from the attack by the foreigner.
