The hearing of a case where Kajiado Land Registrar is charged with Ksh 14 million land fraud proceeded today with the prosecution staging two witnesses in support of their case.
In the case, Jonathan Kimutai Koskei land registrar and Victor Baraza Odhiambo are accused of making a fake land sale agreement dated 1st March 2013 purporting it to be genuine and drawn by M. Korongo and Company Advocates.
The said offence is believed to have been committed in 2013.
Odhiambo faces another charge of procuring registration of land title deed for the said land by false pretenses.
The court heard that on an unknown date at Kajiado County land registry within Kajiado County, he willfully procured for himself registration of land title deed which measures 0.09 Hectares, valued at Ksh 14 million by falsely pretending that the said property was genuinely transferred to him.
Koskei is separately accused of willfully destroying the green card and documents contained in the parcel file including transfer forms with intent to prevent their use as evidence in a judicial proceeding.
The two suspects are out on Ksh 1 million bond.
The hearing of the case will proceed on February 12, 2025.
