The High Court has dismissed a bid by Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi to halt an Ksh813.1 million asset recovery case initiated by the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC).

• The case involves the alleged recovery of Ksh813.1 million from Governor Wamatangi and 13 others.
• Key players include Kiambu Governor Kimani Wamatangi and the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC).
• The High Court rejected arguments that the case was barred by a separate petition and that parliamentary privilege applied, citing that the privilege does not cover allegations unrelated to parliamentary duties.
