State to pay investor Sh17.3bn for invasion of Narok farm
The court heard that the investor still owned the land, although there was a dispute as to the acreage which would be resolved by the National Land Commission.
The government will compensate a Narok investor Sh17.3 billion following the invasion of his expansive ranch and takeover by members of a local community decades ago.
Although the amount is almost half of what the land court had ordered the government to compensate Mr Hermanus Styen in 2018, taxpayers will be forced to pay the money after the Court of Appeal ruled that the police failed to protect the investor from the invasion and the destruction of his property, from 1991.
