Nairobi's former Provincial Commissioner, Davis Nathan Chelogoi, has been sentenced to 13 years in prison for fraudulently acquiring businessman Ashok Shah's property in Lower Kabete, valued at Ksh1.35 billion. The Milimani Chief Magistrate, Dolphina Alego, ruled that the sentences for the six counts of fraud and forgery will run concurrently.

Chelogoi was found guilty of forging documents, including a land registrar's signature and stamp, to procure the title to the disputed 7.39-hectare property. The court ordered the cancellation of the parallel title deeds and registration details issued for the property. Chelogoi's co-accused, Andrew Aseri Kirungu, was acquitted due to insufficient evidence.

The former PC's legal team had appealed the case, but the Milimani High Court dismissed the revision application, stating that the matter was delayed due to repeated applications by Chelogoi.
