KRA de-registers 121 cars including CS Wamalwa’s Range Rover

Water Cabinet Secretary Eugene Wamalwa’s Range Rover SUV is among 121 vehicles deregistered by the Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) for fraudulent registrations and tax evasion.

Mr Wamalwa’s vehicle had been registered as an Izuzu truck and has been held at KRA’s railways yard in Nairobi since June.

Some 124 high-end cars with unpaid taxes worth over Sh300 million has also been placed on the wanted list. Kenya Revenue Authority officials said the CS’ black luxury vehicle, a Range Rover V8 model manufactured in 2015, has a number plate belonging to a truck.

A month after the initial notice that listed the cars required to be presented at KRA’s railways yard, only 12 vehicles had been presented out of which three were cleared.

“Only 12 vehicles were presented and only three have been cleared as having no further issues. Those who have not presented the vehicles continue to violate the law and may be charged for being in possession of unaccustomed goods among other violations.” KRA acting Commissioner in charge of investigations and enforcement said.
