Taxpayers could have lost up to Sh3 billion in the Judiciary through dubious payment of bills, honouring of fictitious claims, unexplained expenditures and missing title deeds according to the Auditor General’s report released recently.

There were contractors paid for unfinished construction and a number of fake pending bills worth millions of funds in the Judiciary according to the Auditor General on the Financial Statements for National Government for the year 2015/2016 report.
