The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has won a reprieve after the Environment and Land Court declared that it is the lawful owner of a parcel of land in Mombasa, which had also been claimed by an individual and charged to a bank for a Sh42 million loan.
Justice Nelly Matheka directed the Chief Land Registrar to issue a new grant in favour of KRA as the lawful and legitimate proprietor of Land Reference Mainland North/1/2415, Mombasa where the taxman developed a three-bedroomed bungalow for its senior staff.
