Investigators have opened a new battlefront against powerful individuals who have grabbed 560 plots estimated to be worth Sh100 billion.

The investigators are pursuing the grabbers, among them senior politicians, judicial officers, business moguls and civil servants, sitting on 560 plots which have been alienated from the land reserved for the rail line.
