A TikToker, Maria Wangari Kamunge alias Rish Kamunge, who is suspected of being behind an overseas job scam, was on Friday freed on a Sh5 million bond by a Nairobi court.

Kamunge was arrested and arraigned in court over the fraud allegation with some of her victims alleging that they had lost between Sh200,000 and Sh400,000.

Milimani Chief Magistrate Lucas Onyina granted Kamunge the bond following her arrest on March 26, 2025.

In urging the Magistrate not to free her, the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) said that the police needed more time to conclude the probe that they said goes to Mauritius, where most of the reported victims ended up.
