Criminal investigations into the controversial Sh1 billion portable clinics have stalled after the Chinese government failed to offer Kenya information on the purchase and pricing, frustrating efforts to prosecute persons and firms behind the irregular deal.

The Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) says China has snubbed Kenya’s request for Mutual Legal Assistance (MLA)—a pact between two or more countries for gathering and exchanging information for enforcement of criminal laws.
