Eight individuals suspected of orchestrating a series of land fraud schemes will remain in police custody for four more days to allow detectives to conduct a conclusive probe.

Magistrate Robinson Ondieki granted the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) the additional, further ruling that if the investigations are not concluded within the 4 days, each suspect may be released on a cash bail of Ksh.50,000 and will be required to appear in court on the 8th of next month for mention.

Among the suspects are two Ministry of Lands officials and an employee from the Government Press.

They were arrested separately during a multi-agency operation launched by the DCI targeting land fraud syndicates.

The other suspects include Livingstone Ambai Munala, Dan Adero Okoth — an Assistant Security Officer at the Ministry of Lands, Nicholas Mukuna Ayela, Paul Muigai Kimani, Kennedy Mulatya, Patrice Josaya Tumbo, Emmanuel Matheka Mutuku, a casual labourer at the Ministry, and Leonard Clifford Wafula, a Printer II at the Government Press.

The court also directed that the eight suspects report to the DCI Land Fraud Investigation Department offices every Friday until investigations are complete.
