A company could lose Sh162 million and its large track of land in Rumuruti, Laikipia County for breaching the sale agreement.

Environment and Lands Court Judge Yuvinalis Angima ruled that Laikipia and Nakuru Property Investments Limited cannot claim the money from Halifax Limited or get back the land for failing to remove squatters staying in the land.
