NAIROBI: The Government will have to pay Sh1.8 billion to a private slaughterhouse owner in a legal battle that has been in court since 1989.
The Court of Appeal ruled in favour of Halal Meat Products Ltd, owned by Mohamed Ali Modha. In its verdict, judges said an appeal filed by the Government challenging a 2004 award by the High Court on account of it being erroneous could not hold water.
