Two Malagasy nationals have been charged in court for allegedly hiding tortoises in their underwear.
The accused, Fally Husein and Rijana Trovina, were arrested in possession of two tiny tortoises without permit on January 22 at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport.
The court heard that security guards became suspicious when they noticed the two accused’s awkward walking styles.
They told cops that the tortoises were wedding gifts. They were arrested for not having a permit for the animals.
The accused, who had just landed from Madagascar and were on transit to Vietnam, couldn’t plea since they couldn’t speak English.
