Two doctors have gone to court seeking to suspend an order allowing DCI to confiscate some of their documents and computers. DCI obtained the order requiring Dr Umesh Saini and Mina Saini to produce books of account, invoices and claims for payment of NHIF from 2013 to date. The DCI sought the order to enable it to investigate allegations of misappropriation of funds at NHIF. While applying for the order, the DCI informed the court that it was investigating misappropriation of funds at NHIF and sought for permission to search Nairobi West Hospital and private residences of the doctors. They also contend that they are neither employees of Nairobi West hospital neither are they employees of NHIF and as such, they have no access to any book of accounts.
