KRA nabs three Range Rovers disguised as household items

Three new Range Rovers have been nabbed at the Port of Mombasa disguised as household items less than two weeks after The Standard first reported how fraudsters are using this strategy to evade taxes.

The Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) yesterday said more than Sh19 million in import taxes was nearly lost in the fraudulent importation of the three top-end cars, with the interception raising serious concerns about the legitimacy of thousands of top-end vehicles’ registration.
