ODPP Orders Prosecution of Lawyers Joseph M. Munyithia and Farid Mohamed Almaary in Sh25M Land Fraud Case

The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) has directed the Makupa Police Station to charge lawyer Joseph M. Munyithia and Farid Mohamed Almaary with fraud-related offenses in connection with a disputed KSh 25 million land transaction.
The case revolves around a sale agreement entered into on 19th May 2021 between Pauline Kanini Mutiso, Regina Mumo Mutiso, Kilungya Mutiso, and Farid Mohamed Almaary for a plot located in Shelly Beach.
The agreement stipulated that full payment was to be made within 90 days.
However, the complainants later discovered that Munyithia had released the original certificate of lease to Almaary without their consent and before the full payment had been made.
Efforts by the complainants to recover the document were unsuccessful, prompting the ODPP to accuse Munyithia of conspiring with Almaary to defraud the sellers.
Further complicating the matter, the two suspects failed to honor police summons, raising suspicions of criminal intent.
The ODPP has now ordered their prosecution for stealing under Section 268(2)(a) as read with Section 275 of the Penal Code, and for concealing deeds under Section 288 of the Penal Code.
