Highlights
  • Allegation: Defrauding USD 54,550 (approx. Sh8.1 million) in a fake gold deal

A case involving businessman Abass Badru Omuyoma, who is charged with fraud for allegedly obtaining USD 54,550 from a foreigner by falsely representing that he would sell him 15 kilograms of gold, has been postponed to September 28, 2025.

The matter has been pushed because the trial magistrate was not present.

Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Benmark Ekhubi, on behalf of trial Magistrate Ondieki, directed the matter to be heard on September 23. Abbas was absent.

Omuyoma is accused of obtaining USD 5,450 on the 11th of August in the year 2021 in Nairobi.

He obtained USD 54,550, equivalent to Sh. 8,182,500, from Yvan De Coninck by falsely pretending that he was in a position to sell 15 kilograms of gold, a fact he knew was false.

He is currently out on cash bail.
