Suspended Kangema Magistrate Martin Kinyua Mutegi has been charged with receiving a Sh150,000 bribe to influence the sentence of a convicted businessman.
He appeared before Milimani Anti-Corruption Court Chief Magistrate Harrison Barasa on Monday where he pleaded not guilty to two corruption charges of requesting a Sh170,000 bribe and receiving a Sh150,000 bribe.
Mutegi was released on a Sh400,000 cash bail or an alternative bond of Sh800,000 after the court allowed him to remain out of custody pending the hearing and determination of the case.
