The recruitment of 1,406 revenue service assistants by the Kenya Revenue Authority last year was unconstitutional, the High Court has said.

Justice William Musyoka ruled that the exercise, which was conducted by the KRA last year, was heavily skewed in favour of the Kikuyu and Kalenjin communities to the disadvantage of others.
