Lilian Wangui Odwoma, alias Lilian Weru, has appeared before Magistrate Dolphina Alego, where she denied multiple fraud-related charges linked to a multi-million shilling case.
According to court reports, between May 6, 2024, and May 20, 2024, in the Westlands area, Lilian Wangui Odwoma, alias Lilian Weru, allegedly conspired with others—who are not before the court—to defraud Elizabeth Wanjiku Muigai of USD 50,000 and KES 30 million.
Prosecutors claim that the accused pretended she could assist the complainant in securing a standby letter of credit from Pacific Concord International FZC in Dubai, fully aware that the claim was false.
In addition to the fraud charges, Lilian Wangui Odwoma, alias Lilian Weru, is also facing two more counts related to the acquisition and use of proceeds of crime.
Through her lawyer, John Swaka, the accused pleaded for leniency, telling the court she is in poor health.
The court is set to rule on her bail application and possible release next week.
