Mombasa KRA officials with DCI close down three companies for tax evasion. The owners of companies cannot be traced.
KRA as well closed down seven businesses belongs to Abdi Gedi Amin. He was alleged to have evaded tax mounting 1 Billion. Mr. Abdi Gedi was arrested on Thursday in Mombasa for being involved in a massive tax evasion syndicate apart from the 1 Billion owed his businesses.
His businesses have been trading as manufacturers, wholesale, s and retailers in household commodities including sugar, oils, general goods to transport services.
The companies are spread across Mombasa and Nairobi.
The government wants all businesses to pay taxes as required by law. KRA now will target small and medium enterprise businesses which have neglected their tax compliance.
