Mombasa Sugar Probe: Mitchell Cotts says no contaminated sugar hit the market

Mitchell Cotts Container Freight Station has refuted claims that the consignment of sugar nabbed by the ports authority in October 2023 has been distributed to the market.

As Juney Karisa reports the Kenya Bureau of Standards has taken samples of the over 2000 bags before they are released to the importer.
