After months of threats and bribery offers to desist from exposing low profile Mombasa based tycoon Imran Khosla, Polo Kimani was lured allegedly by Imran Khosla himself, Kitui OCS purporting to have had a tender deal for the influencer to install electric fence at his homestead in Karen and only to turn out to be a trap.
The influencer narrates on his X account.
Polo kimani escaped with injuries.
Who is Imran Khosla?
According to his posts found on X, the blogger had alleged that Imran Khosla is supposedly at the heart of significant business transactions involving gold between Kenya and Dubai.
There are also allegations that the businessman is involved in multibillion security deals with the government and other unconfirmed claims that he’s in mining business.
The blogger had also highlighted in his previous case a defamation suit the businessman had lodged against another blogger.
Kimani reported being approached by someone named Surya, presumably acting on behalf of Khoslla, demanding the deletion of tweets linking Khosla to these activities under threats of legal action for defamation. The user mentioned being offered ‘chai’ – Kenyan slang for a bribe – which was refused, leading to further threats.
Consequently, the blogger removed the posts but continued to speak out against intimidation.
