High Court Orders Auction of Moses Kuria’s Properties Over Unpaid Loan

Blow for senior presidential adviser Moses Kuria after the High Court declined to stop the auctioning of his multi-million-shilling properties due to an outstanding loan.

Justice Aleem Visram rejected an application by Kuria, who sought to block the sale through his legal team. The court found that Kuria had failed to honor his financial obligations on a loan he took several years ago from a local bank.

The ruling paves the way for the auction, scheduled for tomorrow, to proceed as planned.

Garam Investments Ltd has listed several of Kuria’s properties—including high-end apartments in Ruaka and Juja—for sale in a bid to recover the unpaid debt.

Kuria, who currently serves as the senior economic adviser in the Office of the President, has been locked in a legal battle to stop the auction, but the court ruled that the bank was within its rights to recover the loan through public sale.

Justice Visram noted that the court could not offer relief to a party who had failed to meet clear financial obligation.
