According to various investigations, controversial businessman Joseph Lentrix Waswa, politician Emmanuel Charles Osore, and businessman Jared Kiasa Otieno are serious fraudsters who have been linked to high-profile cases of gold fraud.
This is according to multiple cases filed in court and various victims who have openly exposed their stories.
Others mentioned in public courts of law are controversial lawyer Conrad Anagwe Maloba, his counterparty, rogue Michael Owano, and other city businessmen.
Let us look into the contact of Joseph Jentrix Waswa, Businessman Joseph Lendrix Waswa, and DCI officer Festo Akula Wamwayi

This man, Joseph Lentrix Waswa, comes from Western Kenya.
He brags about a good track record in matters related to fraud, if the current developments are anything to go by. He faces multiple cases of fraud in the Kenyan court, and in some instances, the court issued a warrant of arrest against him. In this case, Mr.Wasw, alongside others, allegedly defrauded a Tunisian businessman, Bilel Arfaoul, of USD 400,000 in a fake gold scam.
According to the court documents and the prosecution, Waswa was also arrested while in possession of 634,178 forged US dollar notes, in denominations of one hundred dollars each, knowing them to be counterfeit.
It was told in court that Waswa and the team committed the offence on September 7, 2023, at Villa Mawe in Nairobi’s Garden Estate, where Waswa and his buddies used tricks to defraud Mr. Arfaoul in a fake gold scandal. Emmanuel Charles Osore

Mr. Emmanuel Charles Osore is accused of conspiring to defraud USD 400,000, equivalent to Sh62 million, from the victim, Cohen Oshry.
The court heard that the accused person allegedly misled Oshry into believing that they possessed the influence and authority to secure a tender for the supply and installation of a GSM offensive system to the Ministry of Defence.
They are alleged to have falsified documents for deceptive representations; the prosecution has painted a damning picture of the accused’s actions in their pursuit of ill-gotten gains.
Despite the severity of the charges, Owano and Osore were granted bail under stringent conditions. Owano was released on a bond of Sh3 million or cash bail of Sh400,000, while Osore secured his release on a bond of Sh5 million or cash bail of Sh500,000.
The cases of Michael Otieno Owano and Emmanuel Charles Osore serve as a sobering reminder of the importance of upholding ethical standards and accountability in both the legal and political arenas. As the legal proceedings unfold, the pursuit of justice remains paramount for all parties involved. Businessman Jared Kiasa Otieno

Jared Kiasa Otieno is accused of defrauding a Chinese national of Sh300 million through fraud. He, alongside others, is said to have defrauded Sounthorn Chanthavong, a director of Simuong Group Company from LAO, of USD 3,000,000 using fraudulent tricks and displayed heavy metal boxes allegedly packed with genuine gold bars and having an office trading in the name of NIRONE SAFE KEEPING LIMITED, falsely pretending they were carrying out genuine business.
Our investigations show that Mr.Otieno was secretly acquitted after he held some secret meetings with the officers from the office of the DPP. According to the complainant, Otieno bribed the DPP to get his freedom, and he had allegedly bribed the immigration.
Further details allege that he uses bribes and kickbacks to coerce members of the immigration service to block his victims from coming to Kenya. Since they are usually the main witness, they then fail to testify, and in conjunction with the prosecutor, the case is mostly withdrawn, and they proceed to the next victim.
