A businessman, Sanjiv Pushpakant Shah, has been charged before a Nairobi court with forging a bank document allegedly intended to deceive.
Sanjiv Pushpakant Shah appeared before Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Theresia Nyangina and denied the charges.
Pushpakant is accused of forging a remittance advice purporting to have been issued by Victoria Commercial Bank.
