“The arrest came after the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) concurred with recommendations of EACC to charge the suspect with fraudulent acquisition of public property being the Ksh12,987,290 salary earned over the years, forgery of academic certificates, and uttering a false document,” said EACC.
“Besides criminal prosecution, the Commission will recover all the salaries and benefits earned since 2015.”
