A court martial sitting at Isiolo Barracks has sentenced a former Kenya Defence Forces (KDF) soldier to 42 months in prison after it found him guilty of soliciting and receiving bribes by pretending he would influence the recruitment of two Kenyans into the KDF.
Isiolo Chief Magistrate Samuel Mungai was the Judge Advocate of the Court Martial which convicted Andrew Muoki Mutua to a custodial sentence after finding him guilty on three counts of fraud during the 2019 recruitment.
On the first count, Muoki who was a Sergeant before he was dismissed from KDF for the offences, was found guilty of obtaining Ksh 300,000 from Edwin Kinyua Muriithi and his father Muriithi Kinyua.
