What you need to know:

  • The suspects are Russian Akhiad Kubiev, Ugandan Bernard Navendi and Kenyan Martin Munga Mutua
  • Sports lawyers Charles Njenga explained that being a money-related offence, the trio can be charged with conspiracy to defraud
  • FKF in a statement thanked the police and City Stars players for smoking out the suspects

Three match fixing suspects who were arrested in Roysambu, Nairobi on Friday night could face their day in court on Monday, police have said.

But it is not clear, which charges the police will press against them, since there is no law that criminalises match fixing in the country.
