EACC freezes 106 properties, 17 high-end vehicles belonging to Thika’s land registrar.
EACC freezes 106 properties, 17 high-end vehicles belonging to Thika’s land registrar: The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) has gotten orders from the High Court to freeze multi-billion wealth entailing 17 high-end vehicles and 106 prime properties belonging to Thika Land Registrar Felix Mecha Nyakundi.
Lady Justice Esther Maina on Tuesday granted the commission powers to also retain an additional sum of unexplained Ksh.4.2 million which was seized after a search was conducted at the suspect’s premises.
EACC believes that the wealth was accrued through corruption and abuse of office, and should be forfeited to the government.
EACC stated,” Nyakundi cannot practically have amassed such wealth through lawful and legitimate means and in the absence of any satisfactory explanation, his accumulated wealth can only be proceeds of corruption hence liable to forfeiture to the Government of Kenya.”
