The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has arrested Japheth Ouko
Mayore Isaboke, the Principal Prosecution Counsel in charge of ODPP Kilgoris,
on allegations of soliciting a Ksh 50, 000 bribe from a businessman in exchange
for fast-tracking a court case.
The amount was negotiated downwards to Ksh 40, 000.
The complainant refused to pay the bribe and instead reported
the matter to the EACC.
The Commission conducted an operation that led to the arrest
of the suspect on Sunday 16th February 2025 while receiving Ksh 20, 000 as part
of the bribe.
He was held at Kisii Police Station and later released on Ksh
30,000 cash bail pending the finalization of the investigation.
Watch the video of the rogue Government official receiving
the bribe.
