The trio is made of  Charles Kinuthia aka Coach Ck, Vivian Khisa Mukwan, and Rachel Matipei who were arrested in July after allegedly  organized a conference in which participants would be rewarded more than 190 dollars a day. In the morning of 25^th Day of June, thousands of youth were gathered  at  government owned Kigali Convention Centre waiting the conference to kick off. Things started to change  when  some were asked to pay extra money to enter, besides the money they had paid upon receiving invitation. Security organs were alerted and the meeting was cancelled. Kigali convention Centre management said they were surprised to see thousands of people storming the premises, while conference arrangers promised to bring about five hundreds attendees. The following days, Kinuthia, the leader of Wealth Fitness International together with two other Kenyans and one Rwandan were arrested being accused conning people. This week, Kenyan media wrote that Kunuthia with his co accused are being mistreated in detention and being abused by prison warders.
