Ex-Leopards boss Jan Koops held over unpaid hospital bills

Ailing veteran coach Jan Koops has been detained at Metropolitan Hospital over an unpaid bill of KSh280,000.

The Dutchman is appealing for help to clear his bill after undergoing two operations in Nairobi to treat hernia.

The former AFC Leopards tactician was due to be discharged on Saturday.

The coach, who has settled Sh100,000 of the bill from his pocket, was a technical adviser at Ingwe until February when his contract lapsed and was not renewed by the club.

The Dutchman has been in hospital for the last 18 days.

Koops, who is claiming Sh2.5 in unpaid dues from AFC Leopards, said part of his intestines were operated on.
