With the Akasha's out of the picture, Swaleh Kandereni started building his empire.

An esteemed transporter by the name Nyaigoti Bosire would take charge and transport the package to Diani town..
Here in Diani, he'd carefully store it awaiting for a cop who'd take it to Mombasa

After Swaleh had paid a mole to store the package in their house to avoid police detection..
These moles would be strategically placed in expensive Nyali neighborhood near the Kisauni to ease movement with local plugs...

Na when they sold it to plugs, the cash would be deposited at diff Mpesa shops Swaleh had set up in Kisauni & Mtwapa in order to wash it by depositing it as normal float.

He used to silence nosy cops after registering most his possessions the Hakimi Way.
So with everything set up, mans started working na a month later, the fruits of his labour showed at caryard after he signed an agreement to buy 4 cars worth Ksh 7.6M on Feb 4 2017.

This shocked cops & boom, wakaanza kuanalyze his recent movement whereby they noticed that mans had trafficked drugs worth Ksh 47m in Bamburi.
Quickly, they arrested him & found him with Ksh 18m cash & 17kg of Heroine lakini he Swaleh wasn't fazed.

Like a boss, he paid bail and jumped back to selling dope until July 2017 when he was arrested alongside his wife in possession of 201.1g of Heroin.
This angered him na hapo ndio aliamua kusaka a side chick b/c this shit was too much for his aging first love Asma..

The side piece he got was 29yo Fatuma Ali who he housed in a Mtwapa apt that was also a storage house for his next load.
Sadly, what he didn't know was that informers were on his ass na as soon as they spotted him bringing in suitcases with suspicious load, they alerted cops.

Luckily, Swaleh got wind of this raid and moved the load to his Kilifi lakini this was too late because cops were determined & they were doing a double raid.
Without warning, they raided his home and discovered the 100Kg heroin worth Ksh 250M on Sept 18 2018.

Na quickly the 2 were arrested b/c thos was a big catch design fast like bushfire the media plastered Swaleh's face as the new heir of Akasha Empire.
Being high valued criminals, the court denied them bail for a min because Swaleh was a repeat offender...

Lakini this did not stop his thirst for freedom
In another gangsta move, Swaleh sent his men to steal title deeds worth Ksh 60M from a Malindi court so that he would use to them to secure freedom...

Lakini when they got exposed the plan backfired and since mans was in prison already, the prosecution could not pin this plan on him.
Swaleh continuously fought for bail overtime and immediately it was granted, mans retreated back home to build a strong case against gava..

Sadly, he couldn't do so in peace because now unknown men were determined to finish what the judiciary could not.
Like chopping down a tree, they started picking up his associates 1 by 1 whereby Masuo Tajiri was picked on 5 Dec 2021..

Even before Swaleh could process Masuo's disappearance, his Diani driver Mr Nyangaka was sadly shot dead 2 days later as he opened his gate.
This raised so many questions that even Swaleh could not find answers to.

But once the lifeless body of Masuo was found dumped in a Thika thicket, bearing strangulation & severe torture marks, he got em.
The answer was that he was NEXT in line of this mysterious death and from then onwards, Swaleh never walked 10 steps without watching his back..

True to his thoughts, on March 8th 2023, his date with destiny arrived at his door at 6:45PM when 7 men arrived at his Kwa Kadzengo home to pick him.
As if knowing his fate, Swaleh did not resist. He only recited the Pres Ruto's mambo ni matatu phrase and went with them...

Nine days later, his lifeless body was found dumped at Kiruwitu near Vipingo in Kilifi.
Finally, the Candy Rain era was done.
Who had ended it ? Nobody knew.
Police say it's the business partners and Swaleh's family say it's the cops...

Nonetheless even as they fight to get answers to this death, his wife was slapped with a 40yr jail sentence and asked to pay a fine of Ksh 825,646,200.
Sth I'm not sure she'll able to raise because in the same breath that the court has fined her

Moreover, the bank accounts registered under his kids name were frozen
