⚖️ HIGH COURT REJECTS WAMATANGI’S BID TO STOP KSH813.1M ASSET RECOVERY CASE
The High Court has dismissed Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi’s bid to have an KSh813.1 million asset recovery case filed against him by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) struck out.
Justice Rose Ougo ruled on Thursday, October 1, that Wamatangi had failed to demonstrate that the recovery case was barred by a separate petition challenging EACC’s investigations against him.
Wamatangi had argued that the case should not proceed, saying a separate petition he filed had already resulted in court orders stopping some actions against him.
The High Court has now allowed the KSh813.1 million recovery case to proceed.
