REPUBLIC…………..…………………………………….…..…….PROSECUTOR

VERSUS

MERCY CHEPNGETICH LANGAT……………………...………....…ACCUSED

RULING

1. Having considered the evidence on record, I am of the view that the prosecution has established a prima facie case against the accused to justify being put on her defence.

2. I thus find that the accused has a case to answer and accordingly put her on her defence.  I proceed to explain to him the three options available to her in her defence under section 211 of the Criminal Procedure Code (Cap 75).

Dated and delivered at Bomet this 5th day of November 2019.

GEORGE DULU

JUDGE
