In a recent legal case at Kabete National Polytechnic, Tyson Kibet Cyber found himself entangled in a legal dispute over cyber-squatting allegations. This article delves into the specifics of the case, exploring the charges, legal proceedings, and implications.

The Charges and Allegations 

Tyson Kibet, a diploma student at Kabete National Polytechnic, faced charges of cyber-squatting related to impersonating former Nairobi County Governor, Mike Sonko, on a fraudulent Facebook account. Cyber-squatting involves registering or using an internet domain name with the intent to profit from the goodwill of someone else’s trademark.

Legal Framework and Prosecution 

The prosecution, citing Section 28 of the Computer Misuse Act, accused Tyson of setting up the fake Facebook account on November 25, 2023, without authorization from Mike Sonko. The act was allegedly aimed at deceiving and defrauding Kenyans using Sonko’s identity.

Court Proceedings and Defense 

Tyson Kibet pleaded not guilty to the charges during the court proceedings before Chief Magistrate Susan Shitubi. The prosecution sought strict bail conditions, while Tyson’s defense emphasized his student status and academic commitments.

Chief Magistrate’s Ruling 

After evaluating arguments from both sides, Chief Magistrate Susan Shitubi granted Tyson conditional release. She imposed a personal bond of Ksh 1 million or an alternative cash bail of Ksh 200,000, considering Tyson’s age and status as a student.

Legal Implications and Cybercrime Awareness 

This case underscores the legal complexities and repercussions associated with cybercrimes like cyber-squatting. It emphasizes the importance of respecting intellectual property rights and the severe penalties individuals may face for engaging in fraudulent online activities.
