A Sh775 million dispute between two international aircraft leasing firms against regional budget airline Fly540 and its partner East African Safari Air Express has taken a twist after a court imposed a daily penalty of Sh50,000 on three top officials of the latter over alleged contempt of court.
High Court judge Aleem Visram imposed the fine on Fly540 and East African Safari Air Express CEO and founder Don Smith together with David Cattermole and George Kivindyo over disobedience of an order for inspection of aircraft at the centre of a court case.
