A man who borrowed a juvenile’s Sh12,000 bicycle and sold it for Sh1000 pleaded guilty to theft charges and pleaded for help to recover the bike.

Isaac Oyoro Muchie admitted he stole the bike on October 2 in Kangemi, Nairobi.

He also confessed to selling it for Sh1000.

At Kibera law courts, Muchie claimed he sought police help to recover the bike without success.

Muchie found the minor enjoying a ride outside his parents’ compound and borrowed to try it.

He went for a ride and returned it then borrowed it for the second time and disappeared completely only to be seen the next day.

Asked about the bike by the minor who saw him in the neighbourhood, he admitted to having sold it and ran away.

He was freed on a bond of Sh20,000 with an alternative cash bail of similar amount.

The case will be mentioned on October 28.
