The hearing of a Sh14.5 billion tax evasion case against Nakuru senator Tabitha Karanja has been adjourned until November 16.

Milimani Senior principal magistrate Esther Kimilu, however, expressed disappointment with the prosecution for bringing only two witnesses.

“I needed three to four witnesses because I had a whole day to hear the case. It is an old matter which I need to conclude,” the magistrate said while urging the prosecution to respect the courts.

In her testimony, Fridah Miano, a Kenya Revenue Authority officer produced licenses that had been paid by the Keroche company which the senator previously headed. Miano said that KRA representative who issued the license to the company in 2016 was Gideon Mwiti.
