Kiamba who is facing other fraud charges is now free to access the multi million shillings funds in his accounts/file

NAIROBI, Kenya, Jun 25 – The High Court has lifted an order freezing the accounts of City Hall finance Chief Jimmy Kiamba.

High Court judge Mbogholi Msagha ruled that the Ethics and Anti Corruption Commission (EACC) didn’t provide sufficient evidence to show that the Sh123 million in his accounts were obtained fraudulently.

The judge also faulted the anti graft body for failing to serve Kiamba with freeze orders as required by the law and also enjoinng his wife and their firm who are not party to the freeze order.

Kiamba who is facing other fraud charges is now free to access the multi million shillings funds in his accounts after the court declined to stay its orders as requested by EACC who wanted to appeal the decision.
