Republic of Kenya

In the High Court at Siaya

Criminal Revision E099 of 2022

RE Aburili, J

December 20, 2022

Between

Collins Ong’ono

Applicant

and

Republic

Respondent

(Being an Application for sentence revision in Ukwala PM’s Criminal Case No. 5 of 2020 delivered by Hon. L.N. Sarapai, Principal Magistrate on 10. 12. 2021)

Ruling

1. Collins Ong’ono was convicted and placed on community service order for the offence of injuring an animal. While he was on CSO, he breached the terms by reoffending. He committed a burglary. The CSO was recalled and he was sentenced to serve 3 years imprisonment on December 10, 2021. He has served one year of the 3 years prison term.

2. As this court has not been informed of what became of the burglary case, it is unsafe to review the prison term. I defer the review.

3. The convict may apply and furnish this court full particulars of the burglary case. The court will reconsider the matter in the new term’s prison decongestion exercise.

4. This file closed.
