Description (show more)

Former Nairobi Provincial Commissioner Davis Nathan Chelogoi has been sentenced to three years in prison after being found guilty in a Sh1.3 billion land fraud case. Chelogoi was found guilty on five out of six counts in a case involving a 7.39-hectare parcel of land in Lower Kabete, Nairobi. Chief Magistrate Dolphina Alego directed that the sentences run concurrently, meaning Chelogoi will serve a three-year custodial sentence. The court found the former Moi-era administrator guilty of involvement in the fraudulent acquisition and disposal of the parcel. Chelogoi, aged 76, had requested a non-custodial sentence, citing his age.
