I have considered the length of time he has been in custody, that he is a first offender and that he regrets the act. I have considered that he pleaded guilty for a lesser charge thereby saving the Court time. However, a life was lost as a result of his action. The maximum sentence is life. Taking into consideration all the foregoing, I sentence the 1st Accused to eight (8) years imprisonment. Mention on 18/10/2017 for 2nd Accused. DATED, THIS 29TH DAY OF JUNE, 2017. A. MABEYA JUDGE 29/06/2017
