Court battles, inheritance fight cases and family disputes have delayed release of Sh4.6 billion compensation to 660 persons whose properties were compulsorily acquired to pave the way for construction of the Nairobi-Naivasha section of the standard gauge railway (SGR).

The National Land Commission (NLC) told Parliament on Tuesday that the billions lie idle in the bank due to fights over the SGR proceeds.
