• Mwangi, along with two accomplices—Sammy Louis Karanja and Moses Ojuka, a former employee of the Ministry of Lands allegedly forged documents for a 1.591-hectare parcel of land, transferring it into the names of companies owned by Mwangi. The land was reportedly leased to a Chinese company for Sh12 million.

Former Principal Secretary in the Ministry of Internal Security, Dave Munya Mwangi, faces serious legal trouble after being charged with the fraudulent acquisition of a parcel of land along Mombasa Road. The charges stem from allegations that he forged a title deed with the assistance of a rogue official from the Ministry of Lands.

The arrest of Mwangi followed a thorough investigation by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Land Fraud Investigators, which was initiated in response to a complaint from a victim who reported the fraudulent activity.

"The Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (ODPP) reviewed the case and decided to charge the three individuals with conspiracy to defraud, uttering a false document, and forgery of a title," the DCI stated on X.

Mwangi, who is also the Director of Olbolsat Farm Limited, was arraigned at the Milimani Law Courts, where he pleaded not guilty. He was granted a bond of Sh20 million or an alternative cash bail of Sh5 million.
