Mombasa, Kenya: Mombasa Chief Magistrate Maxwell Gacheru has now paved the way for the extradition process of the two sons of slain drug baron Ibrahim Akasha and their alleged accomplices.
The magistrate rejected a defence application for bond and extended the suspects' detention for 17 days to enable the State argue its case for sending the suspects to the US where a provisional arrest warrant has been issued by a magistrate in New York.
