Kenya's finance minister pleads not guilty to graft charges

Rotich and 15 other top officials appeared in a packed Nairobi court to be charged with more than 10 financial crimes including fraud, abuse of office and receiving bribes, to which they replied in turn:"not true".

Rotich handed himself over to police on Monday after the country's top prosecutor ordered he and 27 other officials be arrested and charged over a multi-million dollar corruption scandal. Director of Criminal Investigations George Kinoti has said he will seek arrest warrants for suspects from an Italian firm contracted to build the dams, and for those in Kenya who have not yet handed themselves in.

Two dams were to be built in western Kenya to provide much-needed water and electricity to residents.
