Mumias Sugar Company owes Sh1.13 billion for failing to pay taxes on sugar imports, the national revenue agency has said.

Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) Commissioner General John Njiraini yesterday told a parliamentary committee that six years ago the miller imported sugar from Sudan purporting it was for export, but the product ended up in the local market.
