A man linked to the attack at Deputy President William Ruto's Sugoi’s home has been fined Sh50,000 for being in Kenya unlawfully. Ali Elema Wario, an Ethiopian, will serve a one month imprisonment if he is unable to raise the fine.

Wario pleaded guilty to the charge of being illegally in Kenya but denied being a member of Al Shabaab. The accused, who worked in Moyale township for two months before his arrest, was charged afresh after initial charges were withdrawn by a Marsabit court for lack of evidence.
