REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT MACHAKOS CRIMINAL CASE NO. 27 OF 2010 REPUBLIC VERSUS PAUL WAMBUA NZENGI ……………………………………… ACCUSED SENTENCE The accused is being treated as a first offender. I have considered the mitigation and the Probation Officer’s report. Although the accused is remorseful and the Probation Officer’s report favourable, it is noted that the accused hit the deceased with a metallic tool during the fight. The deceased died due to hemorrhagic shock due to wounds on the face and forehead. The act by the accused reflects aggravated circumstances. This court is therefore not inclined to mete out a noncustodial sentence. The accused is hereby sentenced to five years imprisonment. Right of Appeal 14 days. ……………………………………… B. THURANIRA JADEN JUDGE Dated and delivered at Machakos this 24th day of July 2013. ……………………………………… B. THURANIRA JADEN JUDGE
