Kapseret MP Oscar Sudi presented a forged KCSE and Diploma certificate for nomination ahead of the March 4, 2013 general election
Marine Bernard Mulati, a prosecution witness, told a court on Wednesday that the legislator presented the documents to him at the constituency.
Mulati, who appeared before Anti-Corruption magistrate Felix Kombo, was the constituency returning officer at the time Sudi presented the papers.
He said that he presumed that Sudi's papers were authentic until much later. The legislator was taken to court on October 6.
Sudi is facing counts of forging academic certificates, giving false infromation to an IEBC officer and lying to the electoral agency as well as EACC.
He was charged with presenting forged certificates to the electoral commission while seeking nomination for the said general election.
The court heard that he committed the offence on January 31, 2013 at IEBC offices in Eldoret, Uasin Gishu county.
It was said that Sudi's forged documents included his Diploma in Business Management certificate allegedly issued by Kenya Institute of Management.
Also in question is his KCSE certificate said to be from Highway high school.
Sudi allegedly provided false information to Derrick Kaisha, an EACC officer, at Haron Court Hotel, Nairobi in September 2015.
The legislator was also accused of making a false declaration under oath through a self-declaration form to IEBC at Barng'etuny plaza in Eldoret on the said date.
This was contrary to Section 46(1)(d) as read with Section 46(2) of the Leadership and Integrity Act.
He was further accused of making a false statutory declaration contrary to Section 11 of the Oaths and Statuary declarations.
Sudi was charged based on the EACC's recommendations to the DPP, following investigations.
The matter was adjourned to Thursday after defense lawyers said some documents were missing.
