Two officers to testify over Sh500 million Karen and Uper Hill land dispute

Two officials from the office of the registrar of companies are expected in court on May 21, 2018 to verify the documents alleged to have been forged by lawyer Guy Spencer to acquire a prime land valued at Sh500million.

Despite the summons by Judge John Onyego, the witnesses who were expected in court yesterday failed to appear forcing the court to adjourn the matter.

The officials were expected to honors the summons yesterday to verify the alleged forged documents.

The court heard that one of the witness was unwell and the other one is attending a training thus they could not make it to the courts.

“The officials should appear in court and verify the alleged forged documents because the forensic examiner who has testified did not use the original copies,” said Judge Onyego.

The dispute is involving two parcel of lands one located in Karen and another one in Uperhill, Nairobi where Spencer is accused of forging signatures and executed  the late Roger Robson’s will.

Thomas Mutaha says he is the director of Plovers Haunt limited where the upper hill land is located.

While testifying before court last month, Mutaha said he was given all shares in the Plovers Haunt Company. He confirmed that he never paid for any stamp duty in respect of the share transfers.

According to his statement in court, he signed the share transfers and gave them to the deceased Roger to effect the transfer in 2010.

During the last hearing chief inspector Susan Wanjiru who was a forensic examiner confirmed that she had been an examiner for only 6 years.

She went through and explained each document that she had been asked to examine and claimed all documents produced for examination had forged signatures.
