The anti-graft body has been allowed to move to the Supreme Court, in a fight with a businesswoman, who could not explain how she made Sh19 million, raising suspicion that the funds were kickbacks deposited on behalf of her husband, a former employee of Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA).

The Court of Appeal allowed the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) and Assets Recovery Agency (ARA) to move to the apex court, after the High Court in a judgement last year, allowed Ms Pamela Aboo to get back the Sh19.6 million, which the agencies argued were proceeds of crime.
