So what do we do now? Hata mimi ninashangaa. Which means Mr. Singh still has the money in his house. I am also wondering why we have not heard anything about the CIA, FBI or Secret service. Ksh. 32 billion then Ksh. 17 billion in US dollars is about 500 million dollars. Don't you think they would be interested in a case of people printing half a billion in fake currency?

It's probable that the US are interested and involved in investigations around this event/case. Only they may not be the media's target. As for the reporting and the intentions guiding our thoughts and desires, I can only say that we could be approaching 'witch hunt' status fast.

Quote:4. Other than wanting to become Gor Mahia FC chairman nobody knows what he currently does for a living;
5. Claims that he has a PhD in Law by calling himself a doctor when he is not a doctor and doesn't have a PhD;
6. Wants to build a stadium for the club yet he lives in a rented house;
7. Conduct any background check on Eric Adede via any known search engine, there is nothing about him before wanting to become Gor Mahia Chair;
8. Cannot tell you of anything that he has done for the club in the past two years;
9. He has refused to acknowldge the achievements made so far by the outgoing office holders because he was not there to witness where the club was;
10. He claims he is a great lawyer in South Africa. Yet, he has not opened any law firm.
11. All the above just shows that he is taking us for a ride, everything about him is too hazy and bleak. We are not that desperate for change to leave the club in the hands of a Waiganjo aka Chinedu They should have taken cue from Moise Katumbi and TP Mazembe. What a missed opportunity. If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them.

Lawyer for the suspects now says billions seized are not fake. That there is no crime in someone putting their valuables, including forex in a safety box.

The norm in Kenya appears to be, arrest then conduct investigations later. Oppressive methods if you ask me...

You cannot have a watertight case in that short time, you may even know for sure that you have the right thug but he/she can get away on small technicalities. In Kenya, you have to be presented in court within 48 hours to take plea and maybe reduce the work of investigators by pleading guilty. Even a murder case where you catch the murderer red handed or even with a confession needs to be investigated and it could take weeks but that doesn't mean the criminal should be out free in the meantime.
BBI will solve it :)

So the Government has just robbed some people of their $500 million dollars??  Could it also be a tactic. I once heard of this tactic where a guy is arrested with 1 stone of bangi. When they get to court and he is charged and the 1 stone is presented as evidence the guy denies the charge and says, "your honor, I did not have only one stone, I had one gunia with 20 stones. They should produce the other 19." Apparently then the case changed and now it became a case of tampering with evidence with the prosecutor on the spot. These guys will shift the case from what it is to being a case about the evidence tampering and they all know the Kenya police are always careless and they made mistakes. With good lawyers these guys will walk. You can rarely get a watertight case when you are playing to the gallery.

Even a murder case where you catch the murderer red handed or even with a confession needs to be investigated and it could take weeks but that doesn't mean the criminal should be out free in the meantime. If it was an abrupt case where bank officials called the police and reported fraudsters had paid them a visit with fake dollars then it may be reasonable on grounds of probable cause to make an arrest and continue with investigation. But some of these serious cases don't run along such lines unless you want to botch up the entire proceedings. The norm then becomes one of building a solid case before jumping... I think it's a matter of technique. For example if the main suspects are in custody and they are savvy enough, then probability is that you will get little info from them. Any other people in the crime who haven't been arrested will get into emergency mode and take whatever precautions they had.

korti bandia. it's hard to trust Our courts Why not? You are only in custody if you can interfere with the process of investigation. if they have all the currency - you being 'ndani' has nothing to do with whether they decide to prosecute you for the cash... by the way - it can be legit currency but there is some archaic law that limits how much foreign currency you can physically have.
