The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) has received a court order to demand more than Sh1.6 billion from a gold dealer who had contested its tax assessment about 10 years ago.

Justice Margaret Muigai agreed with KRA that Ushindi Ltd, formerly known as Ushindi Exporters Ltd, had failed to remit tax for gold sales worth Sh6 billion traded in 2010 and 2011.
