Ex-payroll manager to lose cash and properties to state
The judge ruled the properties and Sh2.95 million in six bank accounts, were proceeds of crime and liable for forfeiture to the government as sought by Assets Recovery Agency (ARA).
A former payroll manager in Elgeyo Marakwet has been ordered to forfeit more than 24 parcels of land, two tractors and a motor vehicle to the government, which he acquired from monies stolen from the county by inflating his salary.
High Court Judge Esther Maina found that Livingstone Kiptoo Tanui inflated his salary up to three times and used to pay his spouse Viola Jelagat, from the Elgeyo County Government payroll, yet she worked in a different county.
