Millers took advantage of a duty-free window to import maize, which they later irregularly sold to the National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB), senators have been told.

Julius Musyoki, the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) commissioner in charge of Customs and Border Control, yesterday said the millers made a kill after they sold the bulk of the commodity they imported to NCPB.
