In Chambers

ORDER ON REVISION

1.   I have examined the trial court record.

2.  The convict herein, DENNIS MWANGI WANJOHI was on 04. 03. 2020 sentenced to three-and-a-half (3 ½ ) years imprisonment for the offence of Being in illegal possession of Narcotic drugs contrary to Section 3(1)&(2)(a) of the Act No.4 of 1994.

3.  Despite the current Coronavirus (COVID-19) crisis in our country, I am not satisfied that this is a suitable case for interference with the sentence by this court in exercise of its revisionary powers.

4.   The request for revision of sentence is therefore dismissed.  It is so ordered.
