Ruling

1. The applicant filed an undated application received on 27th November 2024 seeking a revision of the sentence imposed by the trial court.

2. Having considered the application, the supporting affidavit, and the applicable law, it is noted that the applicant was charged and convicted before the Magistrate’s Court sitting at Milimani.

3. The court vested with supervisory jurisdiction over this subject matter is Milimani High Court. Consequently, I decline to grant the orders of revision sought for lack of territorial jurisdiction.

4. The application is consequently struck out.

Orders accordingly.
