A man accused of disappearing with Sh137,000 erroneously sent to him via M-Pesa two years ago was charged on Thursday with unlawfully retaining funds that did not belong to him.

Isaac Atinda Oremo appeared before Magistrate Robinson Ondieki and denied the charges.

Prosecutors allege that on August 4, 2022, Oremo knowingly retained Sh137,000 that was mistakenly transferred to his mobile money account—money to which he was not entitled.

Oremo pleaded not guilty and requested the court to release him on reasonable bail terms.

The magistrate granted him release on a cash bail of Sh50,000.
