David Omondi Omogo, an employee of the Domestic Taxes Department at the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), was yesterday arraigned at the Milimani Anti-Corruption Court on four charges of receiving a bribe, in violation of the Anti-Bribery Act.
The charges allege that Omogo solicited a financial bribe of KSh5 million from Pascal Ovinda Purporting to influence a reduction in tax arrears owed by Infinity Benefits Limited to the Kenya Revenue Authority, totalling KSh25,213,378.
Appearing before Chief Magistrate Thomas Nzyoki, Omogo pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released on a cash bail of KSh3 million or a bond of KSh6 million with one surety of an equivalent amount.
The Magistrate also ordered that Omogo surrender his passports to the court and refrain from interfering with any witnesses involved in the case.
The case is set for mention on Thursday next week.
