A Kenyan businesswoman has pleaded guilty to keeping money that was sent to her by accident, through the popular mobile money transfer platform.
Elizabeth Karimi Muthoni received 271,200 Kenyan shillings ($2,400; £1,700) from Bakar Hussein Mohamed last month.
She withdrew part of the money and was in talks with Mr Mohamed to refund the rest, she told the court.
On Monday a magistrate judge in Kajiado county, south of the capital, Nairobi, ordered Ms Muthoni to pay a $1,800 fine or risk a two-year prison sentence.
