Kamlesh Pattni, a British-Kenyan businessman, is facing sanctions from the UK for his alleged role in international gold smuggling.
The sanctions involve freezing his assets due to accusations of involvement in large-scale illicit gold trading and corruption schemes in Africa.
His past involvement in the infamous Goldenberg scandal, which caused significant financial damage to Kenya, further contributes to this action.
This move by the UK government is part of its efforts to combat illegal gold trade, which often fuels conflicts and hurts innocent people.
