Three senior Nairobi County officials have been asked to be reporting to the DCI until March 5th.
The three Chief finance officer Stephen Mwina Mutua, his deputy Johnson Abwori and accountant David Wambugu who were accused of defrauding Ksh7.3 million appeared before mililmani senior magistrate Peter Ooko who gave them the orders.
They were further ordered to deposit Sh200,000 cash bail pending investigations after the court dismissed an application by the prosecution to have them detained for five days after detectives said the had not tabled compelling reasons to warrant their detention.
The suspects were arrested on February 26 following a complaint that they conspired with the directors of M/s Nunguni General Supplies to defraud the county of Sh7,396,552.
The DPP informed the court that investigations are yet to be completed and the investigating officer intends to prefer charges against the suspects depending on the outcome of the probe.
The case will be mentioned on March 5.
