He complained that the trial judge used har s h language when he stated that the appellant used the gun for protecting society into a machine for hunting for girl friends in the village. He further pointed out that the learned judge did not take into account the fact that the appellant met vigilantes who wanted to disarm him. Other factors that learned counsel considered to be favourable to the appellant were that he had been on remand for three years and six months and also the circumstances of the case. He suggested a sentence of 4 years. \par \par Ms Wenene, Senior State Attorney, supported the sentence and invited us to dismiss the appeal as it lacked merit. She pointed out that the sentence was lawful. \par }\pard\plain \ql \li0\ri0\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid16600124 \fs20\lang1033\langfe1033\cgrid\langnp1033\langfenp1033 {\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 This court has repeatedly held in numerous authorities that it will not intervene to alter the sentence p assed by a trial court unless it is illegal or manifestly excessive or too low in the circumstances of the case. In instant appeal, the facts leading to the commission of the offence were narrated to court to be the following. The appellant went to the ho m e of the deceased to look for his girl friend. It was at night. He ordered the deceased to open the door. Other people who included Ogwal and Robert Okello overheard him. They came and tried to disarm him. They removed the magazine containing the bullets from the gun. In the struggle, the appellant shot one bullet that hit the deceased in the abdomen. She later died from the wounds inflicted. \par \par In sentencing the appellant, the learned judge took into account all the facts that were before him. There is no do ubt that there was scuffle as Okello and Ogwal tried to disarm the appellant. We do not think that the appellant was using the gun to hunt for girl friends in the village as the learned judge stated. He was with a gun because he was a soldier. We tend to a gree with the submission of Mr Ahimbisibwe that the language used by the trial judge in regard to the use of a gun was rather harsh. This was a borderline case to accidental shooting. The appellant had been on remand for over three years. We consider a se n tence of 8 years on a young man who was a first offender who pleaded guilty to the indictment rather harsh and excessive in the circumstances of this appeal. We accordingly set it aside, and substitute it with a 4-year sentence. The appeal is therefore a llowed. \par }\pard \qc \li0\ri0\sl360\slmult1\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid16600124 {\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 \par }{\b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 Dated at Kampala this}{\b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid12126072\charrsid16600124 18}{\b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\super\langnp2057\insrsid12126072\charrsid16600124 th}{ \b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid12126072\charrsid16600124 }{\b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 day of}{\b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid12126072\charrsid16600124 April }{ \b\fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 2006. \par }\pard\plain \s3\qc \li0\ri0\sl360\slmult1\keepn\widctlpar\aspalpha\aspnum\faauto\outlinelevel2\adjustright\rin0\lin0\itap0\pararsid16600124 \b\fs28\lang2057\langfe1033\cgrid\langnp2057\langfenp1033 {\fs24\insrsid9376490\charrsid16600124 L.
