Appellate Court quashed the High Court judgement

Part of Watamu's Seven Islands Resort in Kilifi County.

An Italian investor is in trouble after the Court of Appeal ruled on Friday that the plot his five-star hotel was built was not his.

Remo Lenzi, who owns Seven Island Hotel in Watamu, was told by three appellate judges that the title deed of the plot on which he had built his hotel, worth Sh1 billion, was fake. The document was cancelled.
