Victor Were

A famous businessman has been charged before a Milimani court with conspiracy to defraud.

It is alleged that Victor Were conspired to defraud Omar Saleh of his shares at Kilimani Warehouse Limited 24 years ago.

Victor was denied forging a notification of change of directors and secretaries to show that Saleh had ceased to be a director of the Kilimani Warehouse Ltd.

He asked the court to release him on reasonable bond terms or cash bail.

However, the prosecution urged the court not to grant him bail, saying he is a flight risk.

The court was further told Victor Were had been brought to court under a warrant of arrest.

Prosecutors further argued that witnesses in the case had not recorded statements, and if released, Were could interfere with them.

It was further alleged that Were did not cooperate with the police when a warrant of arrest was issued against him.

The court will rule on his bail application on Wednesday morning
