The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has suffered a major setback after the High Court on Monday

Bericht door noumoe »

The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation has suffered a major setback after the High Court on Monday suspended its privileges and immunities under the Privileges and Immunities Act, which had been granted by the government.

The foundation, renowned for its global initiatives in health, education, and poverty alleviation, had enjoyed legal protections and benefits typically afforded to recognised non-governmental organisations.

Justice Bahati Mwamuye of the Milimani High Court ruled that the privileges conferred through Legal Notice No. 157, dated October 4, 2024, would remain suspended pending the hearing and determination of the case filed by the Law Society of Kenya (LSK).

The legal notice, signed by Foreign and Diaspora Affairs Cabinet Secretary Musalia Mudavadi on September 19, 2024, granted the foundation exemptions typically reserved for diplomatic missions and international organizations.

"Pending the inter partes hearing and determination of the application, a conservatory order is hereby issued suspending the Privileges and Immunities (Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation) Order, 2024, as notified in Legal Notice No. 157," Justice Mwamuye ordered.
