A Kenyan court on Tuesday charged a man for trading two rhinoceros horns worth Ksh.8.2 million, nine years after he was jailed for ivory smuggling.

Feisal Mohamed Ali and his co-accused Mohammed Hassan were arrested in the port city of Mombasa last month.

On Tuesday, the pair pleaded not guilty to the charge of dealing in trophies of endangered wildlife species.

Ali was freed on appeal in 2018, two years into a 20-year term for ivory smuggling, over procedural flaws in the case.

Police had accused him of being behind an international poaching syndicate linked to a seizure of tusks from 120 elephants.
