Trial magistrate Lawrence Mugambi had earlier ordered him to deposit a cash bail of Sh12 million or bond of Sh30 million.
Although she reviewed the terms downwards, Justice Mumbi Ngugi rejected claims that magistrate Mugambi erred in law while issuing the bail terms.
The judge, however, said to balance the accused person's bail terms with that in other cases of the same nature, it would be in order to lower the bail for all the accused persons who had applied for the review.
