[Courtesy]A Kenyan pastor based in the US was on Friday charged with two counts of forgery and conspiracy to commit a felony. According to the charge sheet, Pastor Ismael Denis Omondi allegedly forged a constitution and minutes of a rival church with an aim of diverting funds to his church. The pastor spent the weekend in police custody at Diani Police Station awaiting for his bond application at the Kwale law courts today. The Upendo Baptist Church Dallas pastor pleaded not guilty to the charges before Kwale Senior Principal Magistrate Joe Omido. Kagira said that although bond terms are constitutional rights, the court must ensure he was given surety bonds of Kenyan citizens.
