Wambui , 75, appeared before magistrate Rose Ndombi where she denied two counts of conspiracy to defraud and making a false document contrary to Sections 317 and 357 of the Penal Code.

According to the charge sheet, Wambui, jointly with another person who is not before the court, allegedly conspired to defraud businesswoman Kagure of her land parcel L.R. No. 209/4843/10 (I.R. No. 15372) located along Jogoo Road, Nairobi, and measuring approximately 0.3252 hectares.

In the second count, the prosecution claims that on unknown dates and places within Kenya, the accused made a false document,an identity card serial number 230624436 in the name of Francis Kimani Mungai, purporting it to be a genuine document issued by the National Registration Bureau, a fact she allegedly knew to be false.

Through her lawyer, Wambui pleaded with the court to grant her lenient bond terms, citing her advanced age and compliance during investigations.

“Your honour, the accused is elderly. We plead for lenient bond terms. She was out on police bond and has fully cooperated. She is not a flight risk and is ready to comply with any terms set by this court,” the lawyer submitted.

The prosecution did not oppose her release on bail. Consequently, Magistrate Ndombi ordered that Wambui be released on a bond of Sh1 million with one contact person, or alternatively, a cash bail of Sh100,000 with one surety.

The matter will be mentioned on December 8, 2025, for pretrial directions.
