It all depends if the dpp raised such issues but all is not lost, the state can still pursue the same through other relevant authorities like asset recovery authority.

Exactly. The failures are systemic and begin with policing, investigation, and prosecution. If evidence gets conveniently lost or contaminated, investigators overlook glaring facts and then they send a Form Two leaver to court to prosecute, not much is needed to get the judge to dismiss or sell his judgement. Meanwhile, the stolen assets are moved into unreachable nooks and crannies.

Ngumi committed the crime six years ago.
Ngumi was presented to the Anti-Corruption court by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission.

I read this story and was confused. How do you receive Sh1m and get fined Sh2m?

Unless of course the 5m was treated and recovered, which I doubt because carrying that kind of money in cash is kinda hard.

Something doesn't smell right here.
