A lawyer linked to Elgeyo-Marakwet Senator Kipchumba Murkomen was Thursday hard pressed to explain suspicious bank transactions believed to be linked to the theft of Sh1.8 billion at the National Youth Service (NYS).

Hillary Sigei, the managing partner at Sing’oei Murkomen and Sigei Advocates, could not for instance explain why Sh500,000 was paid to him on August 28, 2015 from the firm’s Family Bank client account.
