Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) Noordin Haji has lost a bid to extradite former Finance and Energy Cabinet Minister Chris Okemo to the United Kingdom for trial over alleged corruption and theft of Sh1.5 billion 23 years ago.
City court Chief Magistrate Roseline Oganyo yesterday discharged Mr Okemo from the extradition process after the DPP failed to adduce either oral or documentary evidence to demonstrate why the former minister should be taken to Britain to face criminal charges in the Island of Jersey.
