On or about or about 5th October, 2023 the Respodent herein approached the
Claimant through one of its Travel Consultants for the claimant to book him Four(4)
return air tickets with Kenya Airways from Kinshasa Airport to Jomo Kenyatta
International Airport.

The Claimant in fulfilment of his contractual duties went ahead and procured the
Respondent the said air ticket and paid a deposit of Kshs 299, 000 for 2 air tickets.

Upon payment of a deposit for the said air tickets, the Respondent herein issued the
Claimant with a Post Dated Cheque of USD 3043 with instructions to bank it on 23rd
October, 2023.
The Claimant through its Agent deposited the said cheque on 23rd October, 2023
but the same was rejected due to insufficient funds in the Respondent's account.

The claimant through its agent Monicah Chege informed the Respondent that the
cheque had been rejected and he needed to pay the balance to the Claimant as soon
as possible.

On, 10th November, 2023, the Respondent wrote a text message to the said Monicah
confirming that he would pay the balance owed and any bank charges that might
have accrued.

However, in total disregard of his promise to pay, the Respodent refused to remit the
amount owed and even ignored calls from the Claimant’s agent.

The Claimant therefore instructed its advocates on Record to send a demand letter.

In response to the demand Letter, the Respodent sent an email to the Claimant
Advocates confirming that he owed the Claimant and that the amount owed would
be paid in full on 4th December, 2023.

The unjustified refusal to pay the Claimant for work done under the Agreement
constituted a breach of contract.

PARTICULARS OF BREACH OF CONTRACT

a) Failure and/or refusal to pay the Claimant the balance owed despite unequivocally
acknowledging its indebtedness and despite evidently receiving the air tickets from
the Claimant;

b) Failure to furnish the Claimant with timely and accurate information regarding the
status of his account hence leading to rejections and/or decline of the cheques; and

c) Failure to furnish the reasons and measures it has taken to redress the rejection or
what steps it required me to take to atone for the cheque rejection.

5. Remedy/Relief sought; (Please tick where appropriate)

a) Judgment in the sum of USD 3060 being

i. The amount owed which id USD 3043

ii. The bank charges for the rejected cheque which is USD 17

b) Damages for Breach of Contract (to be determined by the Court)

c) Costs of the Claim (to be assessed by the Court)

d) Other appropriate relief (briefly explain)


e) Interests on Judgment in the sum of a, b and c.

excess of Kshs 1,000,000.00/=, excluding costs and interest.
