The last time they appeared in court, lawyers for the accused persons argued that the facts as presented by the prosecution did not support the charges proffered against their clients.
They therefore asked the court to bail the accused persons however the presided over by Justice Francis Obiri dismissed the bail application.
Alhaji Dawood, has been accused of facilitating Nayele’s access through the VVIP lounge at the Kotoka International Airport into the British Airways flight.
The two other ladies have been accused of travelling with Nayele but abandoned their luggage and managed to abscond after she was arrested at the Heathrow Airport.
Meanwhile, Nayele has pleaded guilty to charges proffered against her by a UK court. She is expected to reappear before the court on January 5, 2015 in the United Kingdom.
