The Mercenaries Sent to Retrieve KSh6B Cocaine From Kenya

In 2006, Kenya witnessed one of the most unbelievable scandals in its history. Two Armenian brothers, known as the **Artur Brothers**, arrived in Nairobi posing as wealthy investors. Within months, they had access to senior government officials, stayed in the Presidential Suite of the Grand Regency Hotel, received police titles, kidnapped presidential escort officers, raided the Standard Group media house, challenged Kenyan police, and even laid siege to Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. But how could foreign civilians operate with such confidence inside Kenya? This Dark Hour Docs investigation uncovers the shocking story behind the Artur Brothers scandal, the mysterious disappearance of six billion shillings worth of cocaine, allegations of government protection, the controversial Standard Group raid, and the events that led to one of Kenya's biggest political and security scandals. Drawing from official commission reports, court records, parliamentary proceedings, and contemporary news coverage, this documentary reconstructs the timeline from the 2004 cocaine seizure to the brothers' dramatic deportation in 2006. It explores the roles of powerful businessmen, senior government officials, intelligence agencies, and law enforcement, while examining why many questions surrounding the case remain unanswered nearly two decades later. **In this documentary you'll discover:** • The 2004 seizure of over one tonne of cocaine worth KSh 6 billion. • How the Artur Brothers entered Kenya and quickly gained influence. • Their connections with powerful political and business figures. • The kidnapping of presidential escort officers and theft of police weapons. • The infamous raid on the Standard Group and KTN. • The confrontation at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport. • The Commission of Inquiry and the unanswered questions that still surround the scandal. Was this simply a case of powerful conmen manipulating the system, or were the Artur Brothers carrying out a much larger mission protected by influential individuals? Watch until the end and decide for yourself.
