Fresh investigations have been launched against the owners of an M-Pesa outlet in which former Kilome MP John Harun Mwau was allegedly registered without his knowledge and consent, a trial court in Nairobi heard on Thursday.
Detective Emmanueal Ng’etich told the court that he expects to make more arrests in the case in which a Nairobi businessman is charged with stealing Mr Mwau’s identity card which was later used to open an M-Pesa account fraudulently.
TIME TO INTERROGATE
He asked the court to fix the case for hearing in April to give him time to interrogate directors of Vilcostec Enterprise limited, Mr Abdulahi Adan Mohammed, Mr Shabaan Ali Issack and Mr Adan Derow Ahmed, which operated an outlet in Sultan Hamud when the alleged offence was committed.
Mr Simon Muiruri, a former employee at the outlet has since been charged with stealing the politician’s ID and using it to register an M-Pesa account.
