An operator of a duty-free shop has failed in its bid to block Kenya Airports Authority (KAA) from leasing a contested space at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA), pending the conclusion of a petition it has filed.

High Court judge Chacha Mwita declined to temporarily stop KAA from leasing the duty-free shops on terminals B and C, saying the company (Maya Duty Free Ltd) can be paid damages if the case is successful.
