A Chinese national, Ling Yao Zheng, faced charges in a Mombasa court for illegal gun possession and assault. Police arrested him at Shelly Beach after finding a loaded pistol. He pleaded guilty to all counts.
The court also learned he is wanted internationally. Tanzanian authorities seek him for a 2022 murder in Dar es Salaam, while China has its own warrant out. He is suspected of shooting two people, killing one.
Kenyan police are holding him as they coordinate with foreign agencies on the murder case. His next court date is set for next month, when the facts will be presented for a ruling.
