A Falcon Oil employee has landed in court over allegations involving nearly KSh15 million.
Ismail Ali Ibrahim is accused of stealing KSh14.89 million from the petroleum company that employed him.
He appeared before Nairobi Principal Magistrate Paul Mutai and denied every charge brought against him.
The case centres on missing company funds and an alleged scheme involving customer payments.
Missing Millions
According to the charge sheet, the alleged theft occurred between December 2025 and July 2026.
Prosecutors say Ibrahim stole KSh14,890,157 that came into his possession through employment.
They have also accused him of conspiring with others to defraud Falcon Oil.
The prosecution further alleges that Ibrahim acquired and used proceeds of crime.
At the heart of those allegations is a KSh300,000 transaction involving company customers.
The Cash Trail
Court documents allege Ibrahim acquired the money on April 25, 2026.
The customers were purchasing petroleum products from Falcon Oil at the time.
Prosecutors claim Ibrahim knew or had reason to believe the money came from crime.
They further allege the cash was connected to the wider conspiracy against Falcon Oil.
The allegations emerged from investigations into suspected financial losses at the petroleum company.
Those enquiries eventually led the Director of Public Prosecutions to approve charges against Ibrahim.

He denied all the allegations when they were presented before Magistrate Mutai.
The court then released him on a KSh3 million surety bond.
He may alternatively remain out on KSh800,000 cash bail with two contact persons.
The case will return to court on September 17, 2026, for mention.
