A Nairobi court yesterday allowed Interpol to continue detaining a businessman wanted in Germany for Sh200 million tax evasion.
Resident magistrate PM Mugure gave police four more days to detain Rakesh Sharma, following an application by Senior Assistant Director of Public Prosecutions Daniel Karuri.
Interpol says Sharma is a member of a gang whose purpose is to continuously evade value added tax by giving fake revenue particulars.
“The respondent escaped Kenya and his accomplices were arrested, charged and are serving sentences in Germany,” Joseph Ngari of the Interpol said.
