A Kenyan pilot Eric Agola Lugalia who had been charged in court with forging documents, to lay claim on a Sh250 million land in Karen has admitted in court to being a fraudster and promised to pay back the victim for the case to be withdrawn.

Mr.Eric Agolla Lugalia had been charged with making a false document to defraud Stuart Gerald Cullinan Herd of his land. He initially denied the charges but later changed his mind and pleaded guilty, paid the victim forcing the prosecution to withdraw the charges.

According to the court documents show that the land is located along Bogani Road, measuring 1.970 hectares, and is valued at Sh250 million.

The Charges had earlier been read out to Lugalia and informed him that he forged the land title dated August 2, 2005 “purporting it to be a genuine Certificate of title issued by the Ministry of Lands.”

He also faced a separate charge of forging a sale agreement for the land “purporting it to be a genuine document signed by Jonathan Kipkemboi Toroitich.”

The late Toroitich is the son of former President Daniel Arap Moi who is also deceased.
Lugallia denied the charges, of making the documents, including an instrument of transfer when he was arraigned in court Friday.

He was granted a cash bail of Sh150,000 by Magistrate Muthoni Nzibe, who set the mention date for July 30.

His lawyers by then pleaded with the court to bar the media from publishing the proceedings, but the request was dismissed.
