Another news in the trial of the band that on November 20, 2018 kidnapped the Italian Silvia Costanza Romano in the village of Chakama.
The Public Prosecutor Alice Mathangani has proposed to extend to the first two members of the gang brought to trial, Moses Luwali Chembe and Abdalla Gababa Wario, the accusation of terrorism that has already been made against Ibrahim Adan Omar, found in possession of weapons, the famous Ak47 that could be those used by criminals who kidnapped the Milanese volunteer.
The Judge of the Court of Malindi Julie Oseko has reserved the right to accept the change of charge next Monday, September 2 in the morning, after having examined the reasons. Among the reasons that led to this accusation, there would also be statements made by the accused about the alleged "cession" of the girl to another criminal organization.
In the meantime, however, he ordered the temporary suspension of the bonds, returning Moses and Adan who were on probation to their cells. According to the prosecution, the probable new charge could pose a danger to national security and in some way influence the witnesses who will come to testify during the next hearing, probably scheduled for next week. According to rumours filtered by the Malindino court, the 17 witnesses to be heard could be joined by other new and fundamental ones.
The official date of the next hearing of the trial will be notified the same Monday.
