Kenya School of Law registrar, Mr. Muturi, told trial magistrate Lucas Onyina that their records—both physical and electronic—show no evidence of Mwenda’s attendance.
“We conducted a thorough search through manual and electronic records, but the student was never found,” he said.
Mwenda faces multiple charges, including forgery and identity theft, after allegedly posing as a licensed advocate since October 18, 2023.
Despite lacking qualifications, he reportedly represented clients in court, including former Mungiki leader Maina Njenga, and is said to have won 26 cases—a claim met with skepticism by legal authorities.
A Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) officer told the court, “The certificate issued by Brian claiming to be an alumnus of Kenya School of Law does not appear in our records, nor was it issued by the office of the Chief Registrar of the Law.”
During a hearing at Milimani Magistrate Courts in Nairobi, Chief Magistrate Onyina ordered more time for the prosecution to present missing files related to the case.
The matter is set for a further hearing on May 22, 2025.
