A Malindi court case that involved three suspects charged with forging Mombasa tycoon Tahir Sheikh took a different twist as the case’s surety turned out to be lost.

The three were accused of defrauding Mr Sheikh of Sh 400 million.

However, it turns out that the case involved serious matters that touched on the court officers, revealed Chief Magistrate Julie Oseko.

Due to this, two of the Malindi court clerks, were arrested and charged in a Mombasa court for the theft of the surety.

The missing surety at Malindi court was used to bail out a businessman accused of trafficking heroin and cocaine worth Sh275 million in Mombasa.

Detectives arrested court clerks- Mr Roba Jarsan Jara and Ms Driscillah Wanjala Mwamburi and charged them with theft and conspiracy to defeat justice.

The two clerks were later released on Sh500,000 bond each.

The case will be heard on June 17 and June 20, 2019.
