Honey Khatwani, you have been charged that on dates between January 1, 2020, and June 30, 2024, at Barbado within Nairobi County, being a director at OKI General Trading Limited, you stored US $2,786,174.4 (approximately 356,711,174.4) of the property of OKI General Trading Limited, which came into your position by virtue of employment.
Appearing before Magistrate Dolphina Alego, Honey pleaded with the court to be released on favourable bond terms, saying that he is not a flight risk and has a family in Kenya.
“Your honour, the accused is innocent until proven guilty. I pray that he be released on favourable bond terms,” added his lawyer, Kennedy Echesa.
The prosecution urged the court to consider the amount involved while granting the bail terms, since the money involved is huge.
The court was also urged to hold the travel documents of the accused, saying that he could be a flight risk.
The defence said that the accused, upon arrest, was released on Sh 200,000 cash bail and requested the same to be upheld in this case.
Honey also complained that he was unwell and requested to be taken to the Avenue hospital.
Ruling on bail tomorrow.
