Three former officials of the Igembe North Constituency Development Fund (CDF) have been arraigned before the Meru Law Courts over the alleged theft of KSh4.8 million meant for the purchase and installation of electricity transformers.
The accused, a former fund manager, chairperson and treasurer, denied the charges relating to the alleged offence, which is said to have been committed on December 4, 2014.
The three appeared before Meru Chief Magistrate Atiang Mitullah, who released each of them on a cash bail of KSh4 million.
The case, which was investigated by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC), will be mentioned on August 5 for further directions.
