This came after the scandal began mid last year when the political operative got in touch with the Dubai-based Zandi and cut a deal for a gold consignment that was supposedly in DRC.
According to police sources, no sooner had Sheikh paid some cash on September 25 than his Kenyan contacts began spinning the stories.
When Dubai put pressure on them, they then said the consignment had been seized at JKIA and even printed fake front pages of two leading local newspapers as proof.
