Kenya Pipeline Company Ltd (KPC) has been spared the agony of paying more than Sh60 million to former Central Bank of Kenya (CBK) Governor Duncan Ndegwa for trespassing onto his land in Karura and destroying trees when the firm set up staff houses in 1990.
The Court of Appeal ruled that the act of trespass and destruction of Mr Ndegwa’s land was caused by the contractor- L.G. Engineering Company ltd- who was independent of KPC, even though the houses were for the latter.
