[Photo/businessdailyafrica.com]Nakumatt's has been thrown out of its branch at Nanyuki Mall over non-payment of rent.The retailer's woes deepened on Tuesday as its goods were thrown out of the building.The Mall's landlord is said to be paving way for a new supermarket.Some of the goods were stolen by locals before police officers arrived and fired in the air to scare away looters, Business Daily reported.A police officer at the scene said they had not been notified of the impending eviction despite the proprietor of the building having obtained a court order to evict the client over rent arrears amounting to tens of millions of shillings.The goods, which were scattered outside the compound, were carted off to a store two kilometers away.It was not immediately clear whether they would be auctioned.Nakumatt had closed its doors in Nanyuki in November last year with a notice pinned at the supermarket's entrance indicating that the closure was temporary.
