REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT NAIROBI HIGH COURT CRIMINAL CASE NO. E018 OF 2020 REPUBLIC..............................................................................PROSECUTOR VERSUS LEONARD KAMANGA KAMAU................................................ACCUSED RULING In this matter, the only compelling issue raised by the prosecution for consideration of the court was that the accused was a flight risk. I have seen the pre-bail report ordered by this court which confirms that the accused parent resides in Mombasa and they are willing to offer him an alternative accommodation during the period of the trial. The pre-bail report herein though not binding on the court is favourable to the accused being granted bond. I therefore allow the application herein and order that the accused be released on the following bond terms: a) A bond of Kenya shillings five hundred thousand with one surety of similar amount. b) In the alternative cash bail of Kshs. 250,000/- with two sureties of similar amount. c) The accused shall during the period of his trial report to the officer commanding police station at the place where his father resides once after every 30 days until further orders by this court. Dated, signed and delivered at Nairobi this 14th day of October, 2020 through Microsoft Teams. ................... WAKIAGA JUDGE
