The charge sheet also had the name of his wife
Farrah Mohammed as a co-accused. However the documents presented in court
stated that she was holed up in Canada as she's suffering from a leg injury and
will take a plea when she travels back to Kenya.The charge
reads that they conspired to defraud contrary to section 317 of the penal code.
“On or about
19th of October 2015 at unknown place within the republic of Kenya, jointly
with others not before court, conspired to defraud Francis Nyaga Njeru of his
parcel of land LR NO. 20273/1 IR 177998/1 valued at Kshs
75,000,000 by entering into a
tenancy lease agreement with China Road and Bridges purporting that you were the registered owner of the land . A fact you knew to be
false,” the first count read.
In the second
count, the two were charged with making a false document contrary to section
347 (a) as read with section 349 of the penal code.
The
prosecution said they had intentions to defraud Francis Nyaga Njeru of his
parcel of land LR NO 20273/2 IR 176998
valued at kshs 150,000,000.
They were
charged with making a title deed LR 20273 IR 176998 in the name of ARJ Capital
Limited purporting to be a valid title issued and signed by Peter Mburu a land
registrar.
They were
also charged with obtaining registration of land by false pretenses contrary to
section 320 of the penal code and forcible detainer contrary to section 91 as
read with section 36 of the penal code.
The land in
question is located at the Inland Container Depot on Mombasa road and measures
1.59 hectares.On December 24 last year,
a magistrate’s court issued a warrant of arrest against Jibril after he skipped
bail.
The court
was packed with journalists from the mainstream media who after the completion
of the plea rushed to an aide of Jibril who sources claim may have “greased
their palms” not to publish the story as it had public interest bearing in mind
that a warrant of arrest had been issued for him to be arrested and brought to
court when he was in Canada with his wife.
The court
gave orders that Jibril presents himself to DCI headquarters this Thursday
between 10 am and 10.30 am for finger prints taking normally referred as
processing because he had not undergone that process when he went to the
headquarters on Wednesday last week soon after landing from Canada. Jibril's
lawyer Adan Ahmed defended his client saying that he was being victimized by
police who issued warrant arrests without informing his client properly.
