The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) allegedly approved fraud charges drafted by an unqualified lawyer against two Malindi-based Italian investors, a Kilifi Magistrate Court heard on Thursday.
A court heard that the charges were approved by the immediate former Coast Regional Director of Public Prosecutions Peter Kiprop.
Lawyer Kinyua Kamundi told Kilifi Chief Magistrate James Mwaniki that Mr Kiprop approved the fraud charges against two Italians who allegedly defrauded two fellow Italians of Sh32 million by purporting to sell them villas in Malindi.
