Former Lugari MP Cyrus Jirongo has been summoned to court to answer a Sh50 million fraud case in which a son of former President Daniel Moi is also entangled.
Nairobi chief magistrate Daniel Ogembo Tuesday signed a summon requiring the former YK 92 political activist to appear personally in court on Friday February 12.
Mr Jirongo is accused of giving false information, forging land documents and obtaining “execution of security” by false pretenses.
The prosecution says that on September 25, 1992 in Nairobi, he induced Post Bank Credit limited to accept a bank charge registered in the name of Soy Developers to secure an overdraft facility of Sh50 million to Cyber Project International as valuable security. He is also accused of giving false information regarding Mr Jonathan Moi in the fraud case.
Fourth charge
It is alleged that Mr Jirongo on March 27, 2015 at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations headquarters in Nairobi told Sergent Maxwell Otieno that he had paid Sh7 million to Mr Moi as a balance of payment for the purchase of Soy Developers “which information he knew or believed to be false, intending thereby to cause the police officer to arrest Mr Jonathan Moi as an accomplice in the alleged fraudulent purchase of Soy Developers company which he ought not to have done if the true state of facts were known to him.”
Mr Jirongo is also accused of making a document “with intent to defraud.’
The prosecution says he forged a bank charge in respect of the plot in question purported to have been signed by Mr Sammy Boit Kogo.
A fourth charge against the businessman-cum-politician states that on September 25 1992 in Nairobi he presented a fraudulent document to a Post Bank credit manager purported to have been signed by Mr Kogo and Mr Davy Koech.
