A move by an audit firm to sack its partner following allegations of a relationship with his junior staff backfired after the court ordered the audit firm to pay him Sh380 million.
Richard Ndung'u told the court that he was summoned to the Klynveld Peat Marwick Goerdeler (KPMG) CEO's office on Waiyaki Way because an anonymous person had reported that he was having an inappropriate relationship with his personal assistant. And then the CEO demanded his phone and laptop for forensic investigations.
"It was shocking for me to be accused of something I had never even imagined doing," Ndung'u told a local newspaper.
