Dr Amukoa appeared before Milimani senior principal magistrate Bernard Ochoi.
He denied both accusations of conspiring to kill the couple between August 19, 2015, and September 3, 2015, and pleaded for lenient bond terms.

The magistrate released the accused on a cash bail of Sh150,000 or a bond of Sh300,000.
