Tea picker awarded for copyright infringement
A court in Kenya has awarded a tea picker $14,000 (£10,000) in damages after a tea agency used her picture in promotional material, privately-owned Business Daily reports.
Justice Lucy Gitari ruled that the Kenya Tea Development Agency (KTDA) used Ann Njoki Kumena’s image without consent on its marketing brochures, thus infringing on her rights.
“Having considered the purpose for which the photograph was used, which was for commercial purposes, a reasonable award ought to be given to the plaintiff,” Judge Lucy Gitari said.
KTDA opposed Ms Njoki's claim, saying she had given consent for her picture to be taken and was therefore not entitled to any royalties in a photo she does not have copyright to.
The judge also ordered KTDA to cover Ms Njoki's court costs.
