APPELLANT VERSUS REPUBLIC…………………………………………………RESPONDENT JUDGMENT Criminal appeal Nos. 818 and 825 of 2001 are consolidated. The appeals are only against the sentences. Both appellants, jointly with others robbed the complainant of cash Shs.1,500/= plus his Identical Card on 21/10/2000. In considering the sentences I note that the appellants were in remand for about 9 months before the trial ended on 19/7/2001 and the sentences were passed. Both were first offenders. There is no remission for robbery sentence. I reduce the sentence against each of the two appellants to 2 years and 3 months imprisonment plus 2 strokes each. V.V. PATEL JUDGE 8/3/2002
