High Court Judge James Wakiaga has set aside the earlier decision that had denied bond to Nancy Kigunzu Indoveria, popularly known as Mathe wa Ngara.
In his ruling on November 19, 2025, Justice Wakiaga allowed her appeal and granted her a bond of Ksh 500,000 with a surety of a similar amount.
The court further directed her to report to the investigating officer every 30 days and warned her not to commit any similar offence while out on bond.
Initially, Mathe wa Ngara had been denied bond by Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) Magistrate Renee Kitangwa.
However, her co-accused, David Ochieng and Christopher Odipo, were released on a Sh1 million bond, with a surety of the same amount.
Through her lawyers Sophie Nekesa and Danstan Omari, Mathe Wa Ngara appealed the decision and told the court that if granted bail, she will abide by all court directions issued to her.
The prosecution claims that she was found in possession of 18.3 kilograms of bhang, valued at Ksh6 million.
The suspects were arraigned in court on August 12, 2025 and charged with trafficking narcotics and conspiracy to traffic narcotics.
