Ruling

1. The pre-sentence report has been considered. It is not positive. None of the parties’ relatives/complainants or local administration are ready to have him back home. All sundry recommends he finishes his sentence as he is a sexual offender. In that regard I find that it is not in the interest of justice to review the applicant’s sentences. He shall serve the sentence but is amenable to renewal of this application. For now the application herein is not allowed as prayed. The file be closed accordingly.
