and

Republic

Respondent

Ruling

1. The applicant was sentenced to serve ten (10) years imprisonment from 12/6/2018, as per the ruling of Mutende J dated 21/3/2022. She has so far served five (5) years only. She is therefore not eligible for release.

2. On 27/2/2023, this file was placed before me for decongestion and I declined to order her early release. The prisons officers are therefore causing backlog in this court by availing the same file.

3. I direct that the file shall be not be placed before the court until when the convict has a balance of only three (3) years left to serve.Orders accordingly.

RULING DELIVERED THIS DAY 4TH DAY OF APRIL 2024. ________________D. KAVEDZAJUDGE
