James Finlay Kenya Ltd is seeking funding disclosure in a multi-billion shilling compensation case filed by over 1,000 former and current employees.

In a motion filed at the Scotland Civil Court on Monday, the company seeks details on how the litigation in UK is being funded.

The company is facing compensation suit by the tea pickers over alleged injuries arising from unsafe working conditions.
