The Court of Appeal has overturned a ruling that had blocked the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission from pursuing former National Water Conservation and Pipeline Corporation (NW&PC) financial controller over alleged corrupt dealings.
The anti-graft watchdog had moved to the High Court to compel Stanley Mombo Amuti to pay the State Sh140 million being bank deposits he had accumulated through alleged fraudulent means and a further Sh32 million being the value of unexplained assets he held. The anti-corruption agency claimed he had acquired the monies within nine months.
