Why Switzerland is yet to give Kenya its funds

Shortly after I arrived and started to settle down in my position as the Ambassador of Switzerland to Kenya, a friend told me, “You better be ready to answer a rather difficult question. Sooner or later, Kenyans will ask you, ‘Where is our money?’”

He was referring to the fact the Swiss authorities had frozen approximately 2 million dollars (nearly Sh220 million) in 2008 in the context of the Anglo-Leasing case, better known here as the “Anglo-Leasing scandal”.
