A Nairobi court has declined to grant a request by a former director of Oki General Trading, Honey Khatwani, seeking the temporary release of his passport to allow him to travel to India for a 20-day business trip.

Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Dolphina Alego dismissed the application ruling that Khatwani had failed to present sufficient justification for altering his bail conditions in the ongoing Sh356 million fraud case.
