The High Court in Nairobi yesterday dealt Kenya Kwanza government a major blow by blocking the sale of 11 parastatals.

The orders issued by Justice Chacha Mwita will be effective until February, next year, when the case filed by former Prime Minister Raila Odinga's party, Orange Democratic Movement (ODM), will be heard.
