A former director of the Lands Commission has forfeited Sh18 million seized from her house to the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission. High Court Judge John Onyiego said the monies taken from Salome Munubi were unexplained assets. Onyiego disagreed with EACC that the monies were bribes because no proof of bribery negotiation or payment was presented. The daughter had claimed that the money was part of Sh21 million her Sudanese stepfather gave her to buy a house. Onyiego said he is satisfied that EACC has proved its case against father and daughter and that the money recovered from Munubi's house amounts to unexplained assets, hence the forfeiture.
