Court says Wilson Nashon Kanani (insert), a Nairobi County employee and co-director of popular club, 1824, has satisfactorily explained how they acquired the assets and funds.
The EACC said Mr Kanani abused his position of trust by receiving revenue meant for the Nairobi County Government through bank accounts held by his private companies and his spouse.
However, Justice Sifuna said that a person's wealth should only be pegged to his or her salary because there are ways of earning income away from a pay slip.
The High Court has dismissed a case by the anti-graft agency seeking to confiscate over Sh643 million in assets and funds belonging to a Nairobi County employee and co-director of popular club, 1824, on Lang'ata Road.
Justice Nixon Sifuna said Mr Wilson Nashon Kanani and his wife had satisfactorily explained how they acquired the assets and funds.
