REPUBLIC OF KENYA IN THE HIGH COURT OF KENYA AT KAKAMEGA CRIMINAL CASE NO. E034 OF 2022 REPUBLIC …………….……...………………………………………………. PROSECUTOR VERSUS EDINAH MANENO NYONGESA …………………………………..….……… ACCUSED RULING 1. I have considered the evidence adduced by the prosecution. There is sufficient evidence that the Accused gave her children Soda to drink after which they all fell sick. 2. The post-mortem that was done by the Consultant Pathologist established that the deceased, who was one of the Accused’s children, could have died of organophosphate poisoning. 3. I find that the Prosecution has established a prima facie case against the Accused. She is therefore placed on her defence. Dated, signed, and delivered at Kakamega, this 21st day of July 2026. A. C. BETT JUDGE In the presence of: Ms. Chala for the Prosecution Ms. Wanyonyi holding brief for Mr. Okali for the Accused HC. Criminal Case No. E011/2023 – Ruling Page 1 of 2
