The anti-corruption court will today deliver a judgment relating to a multi-million shilling property situated in Kilimani, Nairobi, belonging to Rwanda genocide suspect Félicien Kabuga (pictured) and his late wife Mukazitoni Josephine.

The Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) in March filed in court a letter from the Kenya Embassy in The Hague indicating that Kabuga, who is on trial at the International Criminal Court (ICC), was served with the application which seeks to seize the property.

The letter from The Hague indicates that two Embassy officials from Kenya were granted access to Kabuga on January 27 but he declined to acknowledge receipt of the documents by either signature or thumbprint.

“The first respondent was able to engage the embassy officials in Kiswahili. The purpose of the visit was explained to him, as well as the contents of the court documents. However, after multiple attempts, the first respondent declined to acknowledge receipt of the documents by either signature or thumbprint. The visit concluded after about 40 minutes,” read the letter.

In 2015, the High Court issued orders preserving the property known as Spanish villa which belonged to Kabuga’s late wife Mukazitoni until the conclusion of a case pending at the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda against Kabuga.
