A Kenyan national with dual citizenship with the United Kingdom has gone into hiding in the United Arab Emirates with police hot on his trail on suspicion of drug dealing and multiple counts of fraud.
Scott Davy, 33, who was born in Nairobi to a British father and a Kenyan mother is currently held up in Dubai as a fugitive. He also cannot come back to Kenya as he is wanted by the police for conning dozens of people millions of shillings in fraudulent car purchase deals.
An avid golfer and a member of the Karen County Club, Davy escaped from Bristol in the UK last year to Dubai after learning that the police were on his trail.
At the moment, he cannot go back to the UK where his parents stay as he is wanted due to his association with former drug lord Joe Hatherall who was early this year jailed for 12 years for being the ring leader of criminal gangs that supply of cocaine and heroin through south-west England.
Hatherall is a prominent Bristol-based career criminal and organized crime boss whose multimillion-pound Class A drug syndicate was dismantled by the South West Regional Organised Crime Unit (SWROCU).
He operated as a high-tier drug kingpin, orchestrating a major narcotics network that funneled wholesale amounts of cocaine and heroin across the Southwest of England.
According to the UK police, his gang which Scott Davy is one of the kingpins leverage encrypted global communication networks to coordinate international supply chains, while orchestrating extensive “County Lines” networks.
These operations utilize Bristol as a primary distribution hub, systematically exploiting vulnerable teenagers and grooming them to traffic Class A narcotics out of the city into smaller rural towns across the West Country
To protect their multi-million-pound empires from law enforcement, the syndicate run highly sophisticated, logistical operations disguised as everyday businesses utilizing commercial property fronts such as local garages, business parks, and takeaway cafes to cut, package, and store massive wholesale quantities of heroin and cocaine.
The immense financial windfalls generated by this exploitation fund incredibly lavish, high-rolling lifestyles for the ringleaders sitting at the top of the pyramid including Scott Davy who is currently hiding in Dubai.
In Dubai, Davy has disguised his real identity and now pretends to rent and sell luxury cars for a living through a company called Rotana Star Rent a Car.
Police in the UK suspect that the car rental business is just a front to enable him ship drugs to Dubai and con unsuspecting people in the UK and Kenya who may fall for his tricks and purchase cars from him.
He, however, disappears and starts making excuses once money hits his account, leaving his customers with millions of shillings in losses. His customers’ especially in Kenya are now crying to authorities to deport him so that he can face justice in the country or at least compensate them.
