The High Court has cleared Stanbic Bank Kenya to auction a Sh3.17 billion edible oil plant that was under construction in Athi River after dismissing financier Fredwoods Traders Company’s attempt to block the sale.

The court lifted the temporary orders stopping the auction, dealing a major setback to Fredwoods’ claim to priority over the asset.
