“The Rixxos Lounge Management ratifies and confirms the official statement with respect to the video circulating on social media.
Recently as the Rixxos management, we had an issue with a few of our waitresses and our barman which we reported to the local DCI office on the 24th November 2022 upon which they offered help and arrested the workers on 1st December 2022 on suspicion of stealing and defrauding from the company.
After wide consultation with our IT department regarding the losses, we have been recording the past few weeks. We followed some leads and came to the conclusion it was through use of past Mpesa codes in our system to settle the current bills of our customers.
The management of Rixxos later learned that they were released on bond for a later investigation. After release, they came to our premises threatening the management and hence the drama between our management and the aforesaid workers who were asking for their monthly salary and that where we made it clear that we could not pay them until the investigation is completed.
Due to the ongoing investigation, we cannot comment further. Thank you so much and happy holidays.”
