A top lawyer is embroiled in a suspected taxation fraud involving Sh378 million, which includes un-remitted employees’ income tax in a matter before court.

Prof Tom Ojienda, also a member of the Judicial Service Commission (JSC), has effectively been branded tax non-compliant and had his request for conformity certificate turned down.
