Pricila Wanjiru Mungai
Principal Magistrate Samson Temu
Kibera court
A woman has been arraigned at a Kibera court to face the charges of obtaining Sh934,000 on the ground that he was in a position to supply maize, a fact she knew to be false.
Pricila Wanjiru Mungai was arraigned before Senior Principal Magistrate Samson Temu when the matter came up for hearing.
A key witness testified in court and narrated how the accused person dubbed him and her partner into the said business only to lose the said amount.
He told the court that he was introduced to the woman by another person, and they agreed to do business together.
“I was introduced to her by another person, and we decided to work together, and she proposed that we give her Sh934,000 to enable her to purchase and deliver a truck of the said maize 320 bags, but she never did as agreed,” he told the court.
He told the court that after giving the cash, he waited sometimes for the said woman to deliver the said maize, but she had never delivered.
“After suspecting that I had lost my money, I proceeded to the police station and made a report, and the accused person was later arrested and arraigned in court,” he told the court.
According to the charge sheet filed in court, the accused person defrauded the said amount on June 23, 2020, in Nairobi, within Nairobi County.
The amount was said to have been sent to her account through the cooperative bank branch, Ngong Hills.
She denied the charges when charged in court and was released on bond.
The case will proceed further on the next date for hearing.
