Embattled businessman Ben Gethi yesterday suffered yet another setback in the case involving the theft of Sh791 million from the National Youth Service (NYS) after the High Court issued fresh orders freezing properties belonging to his associates.
The Assets Recovery Authority (ARA) obtained the order after it filed a fresh suit against eight individuals it suspects of purchasing a number of assets, including three Toyota Prado vehicles, a plot of land in Ruiru valued at Sh4 million and a maisonette in Nairobi’s Kasarani Estate as part of a scheme to launder funds stolen from the NYS.
