A judge has stopped the eviction of a family in Karen from land sold via auction last year after doubts emerged over Sh34 million allegedly paid in cash at a public sale by the winning bidder.

Justice Alfred Mabeya stopped the eviction of Mr Shreedhar Girdharlal Hirji from the property in Hardy, pending the hearing of a case challenging the auction, which was conducted in October last year.
