The National Bank of Kenya (NBK) has escalated a legal fight in which it seeks to reverse a High Court order that it pays Sh711 million to eight customers for illegally selling their land after a botched sugar import deal.
The lender has moved the Court of Appeal hoping to overturn a High Court decision to bar it from amending its defence statement and the subsequent verdict that awarded the traders a total of Sh711.2 million as compensation for the unlawful sale of their properties.
