Several importers at JKIA caught up in a tax evasion syndicate are attempting to exploit the amnesty granted by President Uhuru Kenyatta to small traders who had their goods detained at the ports of entry, including the Inland Container Deport (ICD).
The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) through an intelligence-led operation, has broken into a racket used by importers or their clearing agents to dodge paying proper taxes for Consignments coming through JKIA.
