No need for a criminal trial. Can't explain. It goes away.

This is quite a revolution. With a broke KRA seems this is a low hanging cash cow before parliament bring a bill to muddle the waters.

But EACC told the court it did not require to have a person charged to go after him. In 2010, EACC moved to court seeking orders to freeze his accounts but Amuti went to the High Court in 2011 and got a reprieve. EACC appealed and in 2015 the Court of Appeal ruled in favour of the anti-graft body, paving way for the main suit to proceed.

This is good way but you still need to have a way to be able to net some thugs and jail them. This will require something like RICO Act in USA. For now just leting people lose their properties is good enough deterrent. The thing that is difficult is taking on criminals like Sonko that have deep money laundering networks or someone like Wanjigi

We need bigger fish but it's a good move. And if you claim you earned it then KRA will be all over you like green on mrenda.

Yes, someone like Sonko claims to have bought property in upperhill for 500mil. Waitutu too bought it for 500mil. Those are easy targets. They are not very educated. Kidero properties had been seized or blocked...about time they were taken too.

The Kenyattas, Mois, Rutos, Raila - those are very sophisticated thieves - who will register companies abroad and make sure they are indebted to the eye-balls. There will be nothing to take over.

Bigger fish have bigger capacity to make people look away with brown envelopes.

If they keep at this - they can easily finance their own budget including judiciary
