Woman Linked to Gold Smuggling Ring, Multiple Identity and Immigration Offences Remanded, Bail Ruling Set for June 24.
A woman accused of using multiple identities and travel documents while allegedly engaging in illegal gold dealings has been remanded in custody pending a bond and bail ruling scheduled for June 24, 2026.
Sabrin Abdikadir Mohamed, also known as Anzal Omar Mohamed, appeared before the Milimani Law Courts facing several charges related to citizenship, immigration and identification documents.
According to court documents, the accused is alleged to have failed to disclose dual citizenship, possessed an Ethiopian passport while using Kenyan identity documents, and provided false information to immigration authorities.
The prosecution further alleges that the accused used different identities in official records and travel documents, raising concerns about her true nationality and identity status.
Court documents indicate that investigators are also probing allegations linked to illegal mineral dealings involving gold, with authorities claiming that the accused may possess multiple identity documents bearing different nationalities.
The Directorate of Criminal Investigations opposed her release on bond, arguing that investigations are ongoing and that the accused poses a potential flight risk due to her alleged use of multiple identities and travel documents.
Investigators told the court that the accused had travelled between Kenya and Ethiopia on several occasions and that some of the information provided to immigration officials may have been false.
The accused was arraigned before the Milimani Magistrates Court on June 22, 2026, where she denied the charges.
The court ordered that she remain in custody pending a ruling on her application for bond and bail.
The matter will be mentioned on June 24, 2026, when the court is expected to deliver its ruling on whether the accused will be released on bond or continue being held in custody as investigations continue.
