The hotel borrowed 3.6 billion shillings back in 2001 but stopped making payments. Court officials put someone else to running the hotel business for eighteen years. Judges said this period was far beyond reasonable limits. The hotel must sell within six months under new court orders. Extra money goes back to hotel shareholders after the bank gets paid...
