Full Case Text

REPUBLIC OF KENYA

IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA

AT MOMBASA

CRIM APP 549 OF 92

Abdalla v Republic

Mbaluto J March 8, 1992,

Mbaluto J delivered the following Judgment.

The appellant was convicted on his own plea of guilty to the charge of stealing contrary to section 275 of the Penal code and was sentence to 15 months imprisonment. He now appeals to this court against conviction and sentence. The appellant’s plea was clear and unequivocal and in those circumstances no appeal lies against conviction (see section 348 of the Criminal Procedure Code). The sentence was neither harsh nor excessive and there is no basis for interfering. The appeal against conviction and sentence is dismissed.
