A gold fraud case against businessman Abbas Badru Omuyoma, also known as Yuri Sande Ismael, has been postponed to next month.

The case, in which Omuyoma is accused of defrauding a foreign national of USD 54,550 (approximately Sh8.1 million), was adjourned due to the absence of trial Magistrate Robinson Ondieki.

Milimani Senior Principal Magistrate Benmark Ekhubi, sitting in for Ondieki, directed the matter to be heard on September 23, 2025.

Omuyoma, who was absent during the court session, is accused of obtaining the money from Yvan De Coninck on August 11, 2021, in Nairobi by falsely claiming he could sell 15 kilograms of gold—a claim the prosecution says he knew was untrue.

The accused is currently out on cash bail.
