Interior CS Murkomen announces a ruthless new policy to seize the assets of illegal alcohol traders, shifting tactics from simple fines to economic warfare under anti-money laundering laws.

Interior Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen is taking the war on illicit brew to the bank. In a radical policy shift, the CS has announced that the government will no longer just fine offenders—it will seize their land, vehicles, and bank accounts under the Proceeds of Crime and Anti-Money Laundering Act.
"Fines are just a business expense for these merchants of death," Murkomen declared during a multi-agency operation in Kiambu. "They pay Sh50,000 in court and go back to brewing poison. Now, we are hitting them where it hurts. If you built a rental apartment using money from killing our youth with ethanol, the government is taking that apartment."
The new approach mirrors the tactics used to bring down organized crime syndicates in the West. By treating illicit brewing as an economic crime rather than a regulatory offense, the state can freeze assets immediately upon arrest.
This escalation comes just days after Murkomen proposed raising the drinking age to 21. It is clear the Interior Ministry views the alcohol crisis not as a social vice, but as a national security threat that requires total economic warfare.
