The High Court has temporarily stopped any planned auction of a 27-acre piece of land property linked to former Cabinet Minister Raphael Tuju in Karen.

In a court ruling on Wednesday, May 6, Justice Josephine Mong'are ruled that the order would stay in place until June 24, when the case will be heard.

The case is part of an ongoing dispute between Tuju and the East African Development Bank (EADB) over the Karen property.

The court order was issued after Tuju's lawyer, Paul Nyamodi, filed the application seeking to stop the auction of the property by Garam Investments Auctioneers.
