A director of a company at the centre of the disappearance of condemned sugar from a Thika go-down in May turned the heat on the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), accusing the taxman of knowing who stole the sweetener.

Peter Mwangi, director of Vinepack Limited, told MPs that KRA officials unsealed the godown where 20,064 bags of sugar had been stored only to find the stores empty.
