Businessman David Kinyua Ndegwa in trouble over fraud

City businessman David Kinyua Ndegwa found himself in trouble on Friday when he appeared in court to face charges of fraud.

The businessman, according to the court papers, is linked to Sh6.8 million, where he lied that he was in a position to help an investor buy a three-bedroom house, a fact he knew to be false.

The accused person was charged before Milimani Chief Magistrate Susan Shitubi, where he denied the charges and urged the court to release him on bond.

The court heard that he committed the offence on diverse dates between 31 days of October 2016 and the 1st day of June 2018 at an unknown place within Nairobi County, where he defrauded Mr Richard Emoru Oboo.
Mr Oboo lost Sh 6,880,000 to the accused person after falling for his tricks.

Rogue Ndegwa had promised to get him the said house along Ngong Road, a fact he knew to be false. He was released on bail of Sh.100,000 with the surety of the same amount.

The magistrate directed that the matter proceed later next month.
