Julius Karanu Wambui v Republic [2018] KEHC 9559 (KLR)

Full Case Text

REPUBLIC OF KENYA

IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT NAIROBI

CRIMINAL DIVISION

MISC. CR. APP. NO.392 OF 2018

JULIUS KARANU WAMBUI ........................... APPLICANT

VERSUS

REPUBLIC ..................................................... RESPONDENT

RULING

The application does not meet the threshold for guidelines on joinder of charges. Clearly, the two offences were committed in two different jurisdictions.   The Complainants are different.  The subject matters of the cases are different.  The only similarity in the cases is the offence itself which alone cannot occasion the joinder of the cases. I accordingly dismiss the application with no orders of coasts.
