REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT MIGORI CRIMINAL REVISION E025 OF 2020 JOSEAH WANYUMBA GIMUGU .................................APPLICANT VERSUS REPUBLIC..................................................................RESPONDNENT REVISION The applicant Joseah Wanyumba Gimugu pleaded guilty to a charge of manslaughter contrary to Section 202 as read with Section 205 of the Penal Code. He was sentenced to serve seven (7) years imprisonment on 3/11/2019 by Hon. Mesa (PM) in Kehancha PMCR 1067 OF 2018. He seeks a revision of this sentence. I have seen the pre-sentence report prepared by the Probation Officer. He was said to be flight risk and the community was not ready to accept him back in the society. So far, the applicant has only served about two (2) years. This being a capital offence, I find that it is not suitable for revision. He can prefer an appeal, if he so wishes. DELIVERED, DATED and SIGNED at MIGORI this 14th day of December, 2020 R. WENDOH JUDGE
