A court petition has been filed seeking to compel the Kenyan government to disclose tax exemptions and fiscal concessions allegedly granted to Chinese firms involved in major infrastructure projects since 2008.

• The petition targets tax arrangements for projects like the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), Nairobi Expressway, Thika Superhighway, and Lamu Port.
• Petitioners argue that these unpublished, contract-embedded tax arrangements operate without sufficient public disclosure or published legal authority, potentially violating constitutional provisions.
• The lawsuit seeks a declaration that these arrangements are unconstitutional and requests the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) to conduct a full audit of imported equipment.
