REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT MERU HIGH COURT CRIMINAL 49 OF 2013 REPUBLIC ............................................................PROSECUTOR VERSUS PIUS MWITI MUTHEE ..............................................ACCUSED COURT I have considered all the mitigation stated by counsel for the accused. I have also considered the Probation O fficer’s report which recommends non-custodial sentence. Nonetheless, the commission of the offence, the manner of execution and reason that the deceased bewitched his son, require a deterrent sentence. As a pastor he should have known better of the consequences of his actions. I therefore sentence him to serve a jail term of 25 years commencing from 25/5/2013. Right of appeal explained. F. M GIKONYO JUDGE 18/12/2019
