REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT MERU CRIMINAL CASE NO. 39 OF 2017 REPUBLIC...................................................PROSECUTOR VERSUS SILAS KIINGA KIARA.................................1ST ACCUSED HENRY THIAINE..........................................2ND ACCUSED NORMAN BAARIO IKIAO..........................3RD ACCUSED RULING I have considered the application for bail which is a Constitutional right for every accused person. I have also considered the Affidavit of Samuel Igweta and CPL Thomas Mburi filed on 8/6/2017. I have also considered the pre-bail reports dated 27/6/2017 on all the Accused. The Affidavits and the pre-bail reports disclose the existence of compelling reasons why the bond sought should be denied. The houses of the Accused are said to have been burnt by the Community out of fury. Accordingly, bond is declined. The Accused are to conduct their trial while in custody. Mention on 18/10/2017 to give a date for trial. DATED, THIS 29TH DAY OF JUNE, 2017. A. MABEYA JUDGE 29/06/2017
