Interpol has issued an international arrest warrant for two suspects linked with ivory syndicate operating in Tanzania and Kenya.
The suspects identified as Samuel Jefwa and Nicholas Jefwa are brothers dealing in wildlife trophies and believed to be hiding in South Sudan.
Interpol released the photos of the two suspects who had rented a house in Nyali, Mombasa but since have fled.
According to the Interpol, the two are linked to the Sh579 million ivory haul which was seized in Singapore in April 2015 stocked in 40-foot containers disguised as tea consignments.
Interpol said the Tanzanian nationals were the key suspects in the smuggling of Ivory from Tanzania to Kenya through the porous Lunga Lunga border after which the ivory trophies were shipped via Mombasa Port.
The agency has called on any useful information that may lead their apprehension to contact police or the Directorate of Criminal Investigations.
The two had three of their accomplices — Abdulrahman Sheikh, Sheikh Abdulrahman and Mahmoud Abdulrahman sometimes back arrested and charged at Mombasa law courts with exporting 511 pieces of ivory to Thailand.
