Judge of the Lusaka High Court Commercial Division, Hon. Mrs Justice Koreen Etambuyu Mwenda-Zimba has ordered Lusaka Business man to pay back K1.4million he fraudulently obtained from Mbaruku Trading.
Mbaruku trading as importers of Konyagi beer, a popular Vodka from Tanzania paid Kelvin Sampa K1.4million to clear goods impounded by the Zambia Revenue Authority.
