On 31st August 2007, Wikileaks, an "uncensorable Wikipedia for untraceable mass document leaking and analysis", published the Kroll Report - a secret report written in 2004 that unveils a web of shell companies, trusts and frontmen allegedly used by former Kenyan president Moi and his associates to launder billions of US dollars.

According to a report in The Guardian newspaper, Alfred Mutua, a spokesman for the Kenyan Government said the report was incomplete and inaccurate. "We did not find that the report was credible. It was based a lot on hearsay." He also said that "Some of the money is in UK bank accounts. We have asked the British government to help us recover the funds, but so far they have refused."

In response the UK Foreign Office said: "That is incorrect. We stand ready to assist Kenya with any asset recovery, as we have done successfully with Nigeria. But the Kenyans have not requested assistance despite our offer. Nor have they provided the information we would need to comply with any such request. Last year, when Lord Goldsmith [then attorney general] was in Kenya with Kenya's assistant minister of foreign affairs, Danson Mungatana, they confirmed publicly that we had offered this assistance."

In mid-September 2007, the Kenyan Parliament passed a law preventing the Kenya Anti-corruption Commission (KACC) from investigating corruption cases pre-dating May 2003.
