Holding

Summary judgment is granted in favor of the claimant for the sum of Kshs.28,223,09.57 and compound interest

Facts

Claimant is a savings and credit cooperative society (Sacco) and claims the respondent deducted and did not remit dues from its members' salaries.

Issues

  1. Whether the respondent made salary deductions from its employees' salaries
  2. Whether the deductions were remitted to the claimant
  3. Whether the respondent had the authority to make such deductions
