REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT SIAYA CRIMINAL REVISION NO. E008 OF 2020 VITALIS OKOTH OMONDI.............................................APPLICANT VERSUS REPUBLIC......................................................................RESPONDENT (Being an Application for Revision of sentence in Criminal Case No. 556 of 2016 at Senior Resident Magistrate’s court, Ukwala delivered on 02.03.2017) RULING 1. I have considered the Application for sentence Reduction by the Applicant Vitalis Okoth Omondi. 2. He claims he was sentenced on 2/3/2017 to serve 7 years imprisonment for the offence of arson. He claims he never appealed and now wants sentence reduction. 3. This court has no power to reduce sentence through an application of this nature as sentence remission is in the discretion of the Prisons authorities not the court. 4. Accordingly, I find this Application devoid of merit. I hereby dismiss it. 5. File closed. 6. Orders accordingly. Dated, signed and Delivered at Siaya this 2nd day of November 2020 R.E. ABURILI JUDGE
