A self-declared young tycoon from South Sudan was slapped with a six-year jail term by a Ugandan court on Tuesday.
Lawrence Lual Malong Yor was granted the sentence by a Ugandan Court for the offence of obtaining money through false pretence.
Malong, alongside two other men, is said to have defrauded an Ethiopian national Ksh 107 Million.
Before his arrest, Lual Malong was swimming in money and never shied away from showing it on social media.
Malong had been posting his picture on private jets and on expensive rides.
In his visit to Kenya years ago, he confessed that he is a very rich man.
"I am a very rich man, as you can see (pointing at his shoes) I’m wearing Jimmi Choos, how much do they cost? You know yourself $10,000 (about Sh1 million)," Malong said in an interview with Jeff Koinange.
Above are Photos of how Malong had been eating life with a big spoon before being arrested band sentenced in Uganda.
