The High Court has ordered Muthaiga Country Club (MCC) to pay lawyer Donald Kipkorir Sh1 million in damages for unlawfully denying him entry as a guest in 2024. Justice Chacha Mwita found that MCC violated Kipkorir's constitutional rights by blocking his access on "spurious grounds," challenging the club's "blackballing" policy.

• Donald Kipkorir was awarded Sh1 million in damages.
• The incident occurred on August 9, 2024, when Kipkorir was invited by a client, an MCC member.
• The case challenged MCC's "blackballing" policy, which allows anonymous objections to guest entry, deemed discriminatory.
