Mtwapa based Shylock entangled in a murder case of business woman Jacqueline Ngina Kitheka.
Mr Hamisi Mohamed who has since the case commenced closed his shylock business was apprehended by detectives mid last year following the murder one Ngina Kitheka.
Ngina Kitheka was found murdered in her residence and his body hid in her wardrobe. Some of the businesswoman belongings were found in the possession of the Shylock.
The shylock distanced himself from the murder case and narrated to the court how the stolen items ended in his shop.
According to Hamisi Mohamed, he bought the stolen goods from Robert Waliaula Kinisu who at that time was claiming his name was Brown Kipande. Hamisi told the Mombasa court that he only came to know the suspect’s real name when the suspect was apprehended by police.
The embattled Shylock also told the court that Robert Kinisu took the stolen items to his shop on two separate occasions and paid Ksh 1550 and Ksh 2020 through Mpesa for the items he had brought.
In the first occasion, Robert Kinisu told the Shylock that his wife was sick and he needed money to take her to hospital while on the second incident he claimed that his sick wife had been admitted and he needed more money.
Hamisi Mohamed also told the court that when the police showed up at his shop in Mtwapa he had not yet sold the items. Two days later after his arrest, Kinisu too was arrested. He identified him positively as the person who sold the items to him.
Previous Offences
Robert Kinisu who is at the centre of the Mtwapa based businesswoman had been sentenced to death in 2018 after he was found guilty of robbery with violence and killing a Mombasa model, Janet Adhiambo Asuna in Kizito.
However, the convict appealed the sentencing in 2019 and he was acquitted just after serving one year in prison.
Kinisu had been pointed as a suspect after police found out that he had withdrawn over 26,000 from the deceased MPESA days after Janet was murdered.
