Anerlisa was recently ordered to pay businessman Ben Kangangi Sh2 million as damages for defamation.

High Court Judge Juma Chitembwe in his ruling found Muigai guilty of defaming Kangangi through social media posts.

Chitembwe said the posts which described Kangangi as an unscrupulous businessman who could not be trusted, defamed him thereby negatively affecting his image and reputation.

“The post directly referred to the plaintiff [Mr Kangangi] and indicated that he was an unscrupulous businessman who conducted fraudulent businesses and could not be trusted. The plaintiff indicated that the claims by the defendant [Anerlisa] were false and the defendant did not provide anything to contradict the same,” the judge said.

Chitembwe ruled that Muigai should pay Kangangi Sh2million as general damages plus costs and interest.
