Ngilu freed on sh 1 million cash bail, see what her lawyers told the judge

Lands CS appared before Chief Magistrate Lawrence Mugambi this morning to take plea on corruption charges relating to Karen Land grab.

Ngilu, who was accompanied by several leaders from Ukambani including Kalonzo Musyoka, and her lawyers Paul Muite and Kioko Kilukumi, told the magistrate to separate her charges from her co-accused.

She is accused alongside eight others with obstructing EACC investigations into the alleged grabbing and subdivision of the KSh 8 billion piece of land by senior government officials.

“If the charges are separated, we will have economic use of judicial time,” her lawyer Kioko Kilukumi told the court.

Muite claimed that the charges against Ngilu are not related to the charges against those others charged alongside her.
