The Court has issued a warrant of arrest for two National Youth Service suspects.
The suspects are directors of Arkroad Holdings Limited, one of the ten firms accused of getting millions of shillings with no service.
Their Lawyer Kiraithe Wandugi was unable to give a convincing explanation to Chief Magistrate Douglas Ogoti, who said “something was amiss where a person cannot explain the whereabouts of his clients.”
Lawyer Wandugi cited among other things traffic snarl up along Kiambu road as a possible reason.
“They could be waiting for me at the DCI headquarters. I was supposed to present them there,” the Lawyer said.
However, his appeals were rejected.
Already 20 suspects, among them officials at the state-sponsored NYS department are in court taking plea. They have pleaded not guilty to the offences they are accused of committing.
