A man was presented before a Nairobi Court Thursday to answer to cyber-crime charges after allegedly hacking into Family Bank’s systems and attempting to steal.
Mr Geoffrey Oduor Ojow, who goes by the aliases ‘Jojo Odukuzi’ and ‘Jeff Mzee’, was charged with unauthorized access to computer data contrary to the law.
The court was told that Jeff Mzee – on diverse dates between November 1, 2018 and January 20, 2019 — unlawfully remotely gained access to Family Bank Limited networks systems thereby infringing their information security measures.
He was also charged with intent to commit an offence namely stealing from the said bank.
