Six employees of the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA), including senior officials, have been interdicted, the permits of 21 cargo clearing agents suspended, and more than Sh450 million recovered after investigations unearthed a fresh tax evasion scheme at the Mombasa port.

The purge follows investigations into a syndicate where consignments of imported cargo passed through the port without paying tax.
