Juja MP George Koimburi is now a wanted man after a Nairobi court issued a warrant of arrest against him and two others for failing to appear for plea-taking in a case involving his alleged staged abduction.
Their no-show came as four co-accused; Kanyenya-ini MCA Grace Nduta Wairimu, Peter Kiratu Mbari, David Macharia Gatana, and Cyrus Muhia – appeared before the Milimani Law Courts. The court charged them with conspiracy to defeat justice and providing false information to a police officer.
The case stems from allegations that the group orchestrated a fake abduction to mislead authorities and obstruct justice.
The court released each on a Ksh300,000 bond and scheduled the matter for mention on July 30, 2025.
According to investigators, the entire abduction narrative was a calculated ploy to block Koimburi’s arrest over a separate land fraud case pending at the Kiambu Law Courts. Authorities believe the fake kidnapping was designed to stir public sympathy and create political tension.
In the wake of the incident, Director of Criminal Investigations (DCI) Amin Mohamed dismissed Koimburi’s claims of abduction, revealing that detectives had tracked his every move on the day he alleged to have been kidnapped.
“We were able to account for all his movements from the time he attended church up to where he slept at night. We even identified the hotel and the specific room where he slept,” Mohamed stated.

Police further disclosed that Koimburi was under round-the-clock surveillance until he was “found” lying in a coffee plantation in Juja – a discovery police believed was deliberately orchestrated to mislead the public.
Surveillance footage and tracking data reportedly contradicted the MP’s dramatic account of being abducted and held against his will, leading detectives to conclude the incident was a hoax.
Further raising eyebrows, investigators said they were denied access to question the MP while he was admitted to hospital after the alleged ordeal. That denial only deepened suspicions surrounding his version of events.
Digging deeper, detectives uncovered a network of Koimburi’s close associates believed to have helped orchestrate the fake abduction.
