JUST IN: American Man Faces Drug Charges in Nairobi After Ingesting Cocaine Pellets
A U.S. national accused of smuggling cocaine by ingesting multiple pellets has denied drug trafficking charges. Jarod Tyler Roberts appeared before the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) Law Courts on Monday, pleading not guilty to trafficking cocaine valued at Ksh.240,000. His lawyer, Danstan Omari, informed the court that Roberts is negotiating a plea bargain agreement with the state. The case unfolded on February 16 when Roberts’ friends rushed him to MP Shah Hospital in Nairobi’s Westlands area after he experienced severe abdominal pain. Doctors examining him suspected he had ingested narcotic substances and alerted the police, leading to his arrest.
