Holding
The application is dismissed as it is speculative and lacks sufficient evidence.
Facts
The applicant, Pauline Wambui Gichuki, sued Glaxosmithkline Pharmaceuticals Kenya Limited (GSK) in ELRC 228 of 2021. GSK is in the last stages of winding up its business operations in Kenya, and the Registrar of Companies has confirmed there is no application to wind up or strike GSK. GSK is considering changing its business model from a local entity.
Issues
- Whether GSK is winding up its business operations
- Whether the court should grant restraining orders against the Attorney General and Registrar of Companies
Reasoning
The court finds no reason to assume GSK is winding up its business operations. The letter from GSK is not an official document and lacks sufficient evidence to presume GSK is being wound up. The court advises the applicant to proceed with her main statement of claim.
Outcome
Application dismissed
