A family business is ordered to stop using a relative's KRA PIN without his knowledge

A petitioner alleged systemic denial of access to his own salary and employment information, unauthorised use of his KRA PIN to file statutory returns, and non-compliance with binding directives of the Commission on Administrative Justice, all across three family-owned companies. The respondents argued the dispute was purely commercial and that the petitioner lacked capacity to sue. The Court held the burden of proving incapacity rested on the respondents and was not discharged by a single medical report, that the doctrine of constitutional avoidance did not apply because the primary claim was denial of information the petitioner had a constitutional right to access, that the right to information under Article 35 extends to private entities where needed to protect a right, and that using someone's KRA PIN to file statutory returns without their knowledge violates Article 31.
