The two surrendered themselves to court after a warrant of arrest was issued against them on Friday for failing to appear to answer to their charges.

Senior Principal Magistrate Felix Kombo agreed with their submission and lifted the warrant of arrest and ordered that they be refunded Sh50, 000 that had each forfeited to the State for failing to turn up in court.

They denied all the charges and were released on a Sh3 million bond.
