Flower firm loses bid to save its directors in fraud case
Justice Roslyne Aburili dismissed the application after finding that the company was not the best-suited party to seek quashing of the criminal charges and that the prosecution was not unlawful.
Exporter Heritage Flowers Limited has lost a bid to free its two directors from a Sh110.6 million fraud and money laundering criminal case, which is alleged to have stemmed from a boardroom fight on the shareholding of the company.
The firm wanted the High Court to prohibit the Director of Public Prosecutions from continuing with the trial of Mr Shailesh Kumar Rai and Ms Ranjeeta Pandey Rai, who are accused of stealing the amount from the company. They are also directors of Rosalia Blooms Limited.
