New Life Ministries Pastor Ezekiel Odero now has access to his frozen bank accounts.
The investigating officer in his case on Monday confirmed that the banks involved were okay with Odero accessing his accounts.
Inspector Martin Munene told the court that from the documentation received none of the accounts was registered under the suspect’s name.
The court heard that the accounts belonged to the church and international school.

The DCI had asked the court to extend orders freezing Pastor Ezekiel’s bank accounts saying that investigations into the bank accounts are complex.
The court had frozen the accounts for a period of 15 days, which lapsed on Sunday.
Detectives wanted seven more days to allow Safaricom produce data relating to the SIM cards in question.
Police want Safaricom to be summoned to explain why they have not complied with court directions.
