The High Court has ruled against two laws that limited the access to gambling in the city. According to the laws, gambling was only allowed in five-star hotels with casinos and a 7.5% tax was imposed on funds set aside by gamblers for gaming purposes.
Justice Anthony Mrima noted that these laws were enacted without proper public participation, which goes against the principles outlined in the Constitution.
The Constitution requires that major decisions affecting the community should involve input from the community, but in this case, that requirement was not met.
Leicester chairman Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha has relieved the club of an outstanding £194 million ($239 million) debt which had been owed to parent company King Power International (KPI).
The Premier League club said the loans had been issued by KPI over the past four years to help build a new training ground and support investment in the squad through the coronavirus pandemic.
The January transfer window in the Premier League saw clubs breaking records as they spent a staggering £815 million ($1 billion, Sh125 billion).
This figure, which is almost double the previous highest amount, was reported by sports finance experts at Deloitte. The final hours of the transfer window on Tuesday saw a flurry of activity, with Chelsea making a big splash by signing Argentina’s World Cup winner Enzo Fernandez from Benfica for 121 million euros ($132 million, £106.8 million).
This deal set a new British record for the most expensive transfer in the country’s history.
