Chicken scam 'mastermind' yet to be grilled

Kenya: The spotlight remains on the anti-corruption commission over questioning of individuals linked to the ‘chicken’ scandal after initial highly publicised interrogations apparently faded out when the turn came for the alleged mastermind to be grilled.

Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) had signaled that Trevy Oyombra, who was the local agent of British firm, Smith & Ouzman, that allegedly corrupted Kenyan officials with kickbacks referred to as chicken in email correspondences, was among those to be questioned, but has been non-committal about his date with detectives.
