Saturday, November 20, 2021 –The viral 21 year old college student who was caught with a staggering sh 102 million now claims she was gifted the cash by her Belgium boyfriend.
Felesta Nyamathira Njoroge from Nairobi Technical Training Institute was hard-pressed to tell how she was having such a huge amounts despite the fact that she was not in any known business nor employment.
Her story which reads like a Holly Wood movie failed to add up forcing the Assets Recovery Agency ARA to ask court to freeze her Cooperative Bank account number 02100705531800 until investigations unearth her real source of income.
The money had been saved in the account opened on August 2, 2021 where money was wired two days later.
According to ARA, the said cash could be proceeds of money laundering activities and this ought to be established before she is allowed to continue running the account.
“There are reasonable grounds to believe that the funds held in the account in the name of the respondent, are illicit funds in which the respondent is involved in a money laundering scheme,” court was told.
The prosecution argued that the source of the millions and how this has been moving into the account is what worries a lot.
“Unless this honourable court grants the orders sought, the respondent will continue to enjoy the benefits derived from proceeds of crime,” the recovery agency noted.
Before the amount arrived in the bank, her account had completely nothing and was opened purposely to hide the money.
The first deposit of sh 25,803,756 was made on August 4, 2021 while the second of sh 25,803,756 was made on August 5 with the third and fourth deposits coming in on August 6 but in separate chunks of sh 25,242,756 and sh 25,579,356.
It was reported that when the ARA flagged the account as suspicious on October 18, 2021, her lawyers reacted with a dismissing letter describing the move as illegal.
