A university dropout accused of hacking and stealing millions from a betting company has been released on cash bail.
On September 3, a Nairobi court rejected a request to keep Seth Mwabe Okwanyo, a university student and cybersecurity consultant, in jail for longer. In his ruling, Magistrate Benmark Ekhubi instead gave Okwanyo a Ksh1 million bond or Ksh500,000 cash bail.
Okwanyo is accused of a Ksh11.4 million cyber fraud against a betting company.
