PROSECUTION CHANGES TUNE IN THE CASE WHERE PCEA CHURCH LOST KSH 50.9 MILLION!!

The prosecution has changed tune in the case where former Presbyterian Church of Eastern Africa (PCEA) moderator David Gathanju and to others are charged with stealing 50.9 million. During the mention of the case prosecution counsel Donnex Ongora said they will be relaying as evidence the statement by former Nairobi West Equity branch manager Ms. Chebet Rotich. On July 4 during the hearing of the case, the prosecution had sought to recall the statement by the manager but the defense declined. Investigation officer Paul Waweru LSO told the court he did not seek to use Chebet’s statement adding they were intending to call another witness for Equity bank who will provide another the bank statement account. The statement by the manager which was produced in court indicated PCEA General Assembly Secretary-General Rev Peter Kania, who is the church’s second-in-command, usually authorized the transfer of funds. The manager in the statement indicated that before effecting any transfers from one account to the other, she would call Mr. Kania to confirm whether they had sanctioned the transactions. Ms. Chebet added in the statement that in Kania’s absence, she would call church treasurer Amon Nderi. She stated that she used to seek verification using the bank’s landline number. Gathanju, who served as a moderator between 2009 and 2015, is charged alongside two former employees, James Muiruri and Peter Mwangi. Muiruri is a former finance officer while Mwangi is a former communications director at the church. The three are charged that on diverse dates between January 2, 2016, and June 30, 2017, at PCEA headquarters in Nairobi's South C estate, they stole Sh50.9 million from the church. In a second count, they are accused of stealing Sh50.9 million that came into their possession by virtue of their employment. The three have denied the charges and are out on a Sh1 million bond.
