3 charged in Ksh.300 million gold scam

According to the charge sheet, Frank David Kateti, Alain Mwandia Nvita Lukusa and Daniel Otieno  Ogot are alleged to have committed the offence on diverse dates between February 5 and June 13, 2024 at Nairobi County. They are charged with others who were not before court.

In count number two, they are charged with obtaining money by false pretense. Ogot faces a third count that of forging East African Community certificate purporting to be genuine documents issued by Ministry of Mining.

The matter was coming up for consolidation today where they were charged. An application to have Kateti’s passport released was however dismissed. 

They were all granted a cash bail of Ksh.500,000 each. The case will be mentioned on October 7, this year to conform compliance to court directions.
