RE Aburili, J

August 19, 2024

Between

Nickson Kipkoech

Applicant

and

Republic

Respondent

(From the original conviction and sentence in Winam SPM SO Case No.E024 of 2023)

Ruling

1. The applicant seeks in his application dated 19the Jnauary, 2024 and filed in court on 14/6/2024 that he was convicted of the offence of attempted defilement and was sentenced to serve ten years in prison on 21/11/2023.

2. he now seeks for review of that sentence because he is undergoing reformation and rehabilitation.

3. I have considered the application and I find no substance in it. Not even court proceedings and judgment were annexed although that would not have made any difference where lawful sentence was imposed.

4. I find the application dated 19/1/2024 is not supported by any material. It is hereby dismissed for want of merit.

5. Signal to issue.

6. This file is closed.
